It is not a bug. The app is registered with a given path when being registered. If this path is changed, Windows, or any other OS, will not be able to find the app where it was registered.
What you would have to do is to support this at the app level if you intend to change from one to the other.
Or am I missing something?

Oh, I think I see what you mean. The registry key should be recreated when disabling and re-enabling auto-launch.
Could you have a look where the registry key is written (HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run) and look at the entries? When enabling, an entry should be added; when disabling, the entry should be removed. Since it's the same app, the previous key should be deleted when disabling and recreated with the new path when re-enabling (if the appName is the same, which is used as the description of the entry).
