Just create a shortcut on your Windows desktop to STVP, right-click the shortcut icon and select Properties. In the Shortcut tab of the Properties window, edit the Target line by adding -project=project_name.stp to the end of the command line. For example, to open my_project.stp automatically, the Target field might look like:
    C:\Program Files\stvp\stvp.exe -project=my_project.stp
