That page mentions the 'uncap' tool which I have been using for a while. It is excellent. Download the few kb executable from GitHub, launch it once, place it in your startup folder, and it just works forever.
If you don't have admin then you'll need to launch it every boot since you can't put it into the startup folder.
To get to the startup folder, open the start menu, right click on an application (might have to be a windows-included app, like Edge, instead of a 3rd party one), and do 'open in folder', then go up to the Start Menu folder if necessary and then into the startup folder. Google says the path of that is this, but I haven't verified:
I haven't tried it but it appears there's a user-specific startup folder which might work without admin: C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

Programs / links in there get autorun at boot :)
