How to manage startup programs when Windows Defender is disabled?

How to manage what programs to start with Windows when Windows Defender is disabled?  I am running Vista Home SP2 with Microsoft Security Essentials.

http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Where_is_msconfig_on_vista

You can use msconfig or the program below.

And search for particular software tools > Options re start.

http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx

This utility, which has a knowledge of auto-starting locations of any startup monitor, shows you what programs configured to run at system startup or login and that the entries in the order of processing windows. These programs include those in your startup folder, Run, RunOnce, and other registry keys. You can configure Autoruns to show other locations, including Explorer shell, toolbar extensions, helper objects to the browser, Winlogon notifications, auto and many start-up services even more. Autoruns goes way beyond the MSConfig utility bundled with Windows Me and XP.

See you soon.

  • How to manage startup programs if Windows Defender open habit?

    When I try to change startup programs, I get an error Windows Defender message: 0x800106ba when I click on the link to open Windows Defender. It used to open this way recently and I read that it might have something to do with other antivirus programs. I was not able to open Windows Defender for the month from the list of programs, but I've always been able to open it when I try to change startup programs, until, like yesterday. I tried running it as administrator and also to open it in the location of the file, but I get the same error message. So, how can I manage my startup programs?

    If you use Norton, AVG, Avira, Microsoft Security Essentials, McAfee, etc. the default action is for Windows Defender must be disabled, that these AntiVirus programs have their own Antispyware Applications.

  • How to change startup programs, as MSE disables Defender?

    How to stop startup programs unnecessary upward poping when I start my pc

    First of all, note that you should be in * all * the programs that start automatically, not only with those who are in the system tray. Not all the programs auto-start manifesting by an icon in the status bar.

    On each program, you don't want to automatically start, check its Options to see if she has the choice to not start (make sure that you actually choose to not run, not simply a "don't display the icon" option). Many can easily and better be arrested like that. If this does not work, run MSCONFIG from the start. Run the line and on the Startup tab, uncheck the programs that you do not want to automatically start.

    However, if I were you, I wouldn't do this just for the purpose of the minimum number of running programs. Despite what a lot of people tell you, you should be concerned, not with the way * a lot * of these programs you run, but * that *. Some of them can seriously affect the performance, but others have no effect on performance.

    Don't stop all programs to run willy-nilly. What you need to do is to determine what each program is that its value is for you and what the performance cost is running all the time. You can try searching the Internet and ask questions about the details here.

    Once you have this information, you can make a smart informed decision on what you want to keep and what you want to get rid of.

  • How to start the program before windows 7 user logon

    I already know how to start a program when a user logs on to Windows 7. * (Not easy to find, but once you know the trick, it's simple as pie: place a shortcut in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup). So don't answer that. I already know that.

    But my question is this:

    How can I get the same program to launch * before * the users logon? I want the program start when Windows restarts.

    This program does not require the user's privileges - does not open the files, etc., except access to (of course) its location in C:\Program Files (x 86) / folder.

    (What, you may ask? I would like to launch a program of Wake-on-LAN to send a "magic packet" to a computer on the local subnet to sleep. Asleep computer happens to host some of the shared data).

    If you want to start until the user opens a session, you will have to start as a service.

    This is the boot sequence for the main registry keys, starting immediately after reading bootmgr and ending with the program shortcut entries in the two startup folders.

    1 HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\BootExecute. This may include instructions to schedule chkdsk runs, but not the user programs.

    2 services start ensuites, followed by the keys of registry RunServicesOnce and RunServices (if present)

    3. the user then connects to the system

    4 HKLM Winlogon, Userinit. This indicates that the program C:\WINDOWS\system32\userinit.exe, and the entry ends with a comma. Other programs can be started from this key by adding and separated by a comma.

    5 HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\Shell. This must contain an entry, explorer.exe.

    6. program entered into these key 2 registry for all USERS start following:

    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run and \RunOnce

    7. program entered into these 2 registry for the CURRENT USER key start following:

    HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run and \RunOnce

    8. programs in startup of all records users and current user are started last of all.

    Important as antivirus and firewall programs begin early in the sequence as Services. The icons that appear in the Notification area (at the bottom right of the screen) is just their user interfaces, i.e. options and preferences.

    The additional location of 32-bit applications on a 64-bit computer is HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node and HKCU.

    If you have Norton, McAfee, Microsoft Security Essentials, AVG, etc installed, they will disable the Defender by purpose.

    Read about Defender:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/turn-Windows-Defender-on-or-off

    Enable or disable the Windows Defender

    When Windows Defender is on, you're alerted when spyware and other potentially unwanted software attempts to settle, run on your computer, or change important Windows settings. If you use the default settings, Windows Defender will also check for new definitions, regularly search for spyware and other potentially unwanted software, and automatically remove any detected item that has a recommended removal action.

    1. Open Windows Defender by clicking on the button start , clicking all programs, and then click Windows Defender.

    2. Click on tools and then click Options.

    3. Under the administrator options, select or clear the check box use Windows Defender and then click Save. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
