How to remove Windows Startup Programs in XP
Posted September 3rd, 2007 in Internet Software Development.
Microsoft Windows XP comes with the System Configurationtool, Msconfig.exe. This program provides a way to manage the process and applications that start automatically when you boot Windows. To start the program:
1. Click Start, click Run, type Msconfig, and then press Enter.
2. On the Startup tab, you’ll see a list of all the programs and processes that are set to run when Windows XP loads.
3. Speed up your overall start time by clearing the check box next to any item you think you don’t need.
4. Click Apply, and then restart your computer for the changes to take effect.
