I want to know how to start XAMPP at startup (windows)

You want to register the xampp components as Windows Service.
Simply tick the svc-Boxes byside each component you want to start as service in the xampp control panel

go to control panel
click on administrative tools
click on internet information server
click on continue
click on stop on top right under Manage server - then go back and start apache on your control panel

et voici she works
