The replace part is hard: if you don't have data or configuration that you want to preserve, it'd be easy to reinstall the whole operating system. The how to check is looking into the menus and see how things are called. For example if there is a "System" menu, it should contain things like "MATE System Monitor" or "MATE Terminal" (the one you need to do what henriq suggested). In this example you have "MATE". Or it may contain "Gnome System Monitor" or "Gnome Terminal", then you have Gnome. But in the end it does not matter to you, just search for that Startup Applications, if it's there use it. The documentation (with pictures!) for using Startup Applications in Gnome is available at the following link. If you have MATE or XFCE the windows will look different, but they should have the same content, perhaps organized in a slightly different order. Here's the link: https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentatio...s-in-gnome (you just need it for your own user, not for "others" so you can omit that final, more intimidating part).

Bash files are simply text file which have commands that tell the computer what to do. In fact it's better/easier to do stuff that way, rather than "search for this command in a menu, then click on that button, then a window appear, search for that tab in that window, click on that checkbox", which are time consuming and error prone. But I understand that people are used to the tedious latter and like it, whereas only a few have seen bash scripts and they feel intimidating (they are not, per se, but they could be if the commands written inside them are).

It should start Pianoteq at boot.
If it doesn't and the reason is something wrong with the .service file, fix that error and run:
If it doesn't how the OP should find what is wrong? Executing
sudo systemctl status pianoteq.service
But Flossybus does not seem eager to go with this approach (plus I use it all the time, but I've never used it for GUIs and I am not sure it'll work since some services might get started before the GUI is ready to accept them)
Where do I find a list of all posts I upvoted? :(
