How will eradicate unnecessary programs during start up?

Question

I`m having a problem removing some programs that runs during the start up of my computer. These programs affects the speed of my computer. For example the quick time player. All I needed was for Yahoo Messenger to automatically sign in during starting up my computer. I read it before but I forgot how to do it.

Answer 1

start run (type) msconfig and on startup tab remove programmes you don't want to run - make sure you don't remove any that your system needs.

Alternatively you can use the free startup inspector programme which is probably easier and safer:

Answer 2

Start > Run > Type in: msconfig

Go to the Start Up tab

Uncheck anything you do not want to load during startup (usually everything)

Answer 3

Start> Run> type regedit > navigate to \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\
Microsoft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\Run

Delete anything you don't want to run. Do a search for any programs you're not sure about before deleting. Although QuickTime player will probably keep adding it self so disable auto update in the preferences.

Answer 4

the best you can do is find the programs setting and find the statement "automatically sign in or start". there should be a box to uncheck and check. in your case you have to uncheck it and press apply at the bottum of the box

Answer 5

goto run command and type in msconfig and press OK.

then goto startup and select what u want and what u do not want.


Hope this helps u ..... !
