What I also want to do at the same time is have WinAmp run (that in itself shouldn't be difficult) but I want it to actually start playing all files in a particular folder.
I've found references of how to do this with a playlist but I don't use them.
Any ideas, please?

No other tool that relies on it is going to be of any use is it.

Irfanview doesn't use it
However I prefer FastStone Image Viewer which doesn't use it either http://www.faststone.org/FSViewerDetail.htm

I didn't realise I did have a playlist (not saved, though) - it simply contained all the songs in my music folder (almost 7000).
Back to the Task Scheduler...
Been searching how to get WinAmp to run at startup while parsing the (now saved) PlayList to automatically start:
Seems that I can edit the WinAmp Desktop shortcut Target to : "D:\Program Files (x86)\Winamp\winamp.exe" "E:\My Music\All files playlist.m3u8" the place a copy in the StartUp menu. Does that sound correct?

As Irfanview allows you to choose any key or key combination to trigger the capture, if winamp can block it that must mean that all other applications are unable to receive keystrokes while winamp is running. That isn't my experience!

Not tried it but winamp should be associated with that file anyway so the moment it's executed it's passed to winamp.exe by windows automatically.
