None of them being there but be careful about disabling antivirus/security

You can use these to control which startup programs. Many who install it themselves in

and many other who are responsible for pieces themselves start more quickly (not a question on today)
the machines) and to be sure that they can control the files they support (to make sure you continue

    The less you have to run all the time, most things you want to run will perform:

    Use Autoruns to understand this all starts when your computer's / when you log in.  Look for whatever it is you do not know using Google (or ask here.)  You can hopefully figure out if there are things from when your computer does (or connect) you don't not need and then configure them (through their own built-in mechanisms is the preferred method) so they do not - start using your resources without reason.

    You can download and use Process Explorer to see exactly what is taking your time processor/CPU and memory.  This can help you to identify applications that you might want to consider alternatives for and get rid of all together.

  • Unknown to the programs that run in the background, slowing down the computer

    System resources are always be taxed.  How to get to the screen that lists all the programs that start automatically at system boot?  How to identify unnecessary programs in startup list?  Once identified, how to eliminate these programs?

    Hello DcR3, levels,

    How to get to the screen that lists all the programs that start automatically at system boot? How to identify unnecessary programs in startup list? Once identified, how to eliminate these programs?

     I would say do not delete program files if you are unsure what it is.  You can do a search online of a file if you don't know exactly what it is.

    To view startup programs:

    Right-click on the icon in the start menu. Select "Explorer" from the menu that appears
    Find the 'Programs' folder in the pane on the left side of the dialog window. Click the plus sign "+" to expand the tree of folders
    Click the "Startup" folder to view the programs that start up when your computer is turned on

    Go to the start menu. In the menu list, click on 'run '.

    Type "msconfig" without the quotes in the text bar. Click on 'OK '.

    Click on the "Startup" tab in the dialog window of the System Configuration that is displayed.

    Scroll down to see all of the programs and program files that start up when your computer is turned on.

    Hi camolentot,
    For a programme of work, it must be started. Programs are started in three ways.
    1. the first is if actually start you yourself by throwing it
    2. the second way is for other programs start another program.
    3. the third way is a program be configured to start automatically when the operating system starts. The type of programs that start through the third way are what we call the Windows startup programs
    The third type programs can be of the following types.
    * Some programs are needed for the operating system to operate correctly
    * Some programs, it is not necessary to run as it can be launched if necessary.
    You can change the programs such as messengers or software that you think that it is not necessary to run at the beginning. But it's not good tweaking all train backup software or security data. Its better to take help among people with knowledge about this program before tweaking start-up businesses.
    Tweaking unnecessary startups can speed up your PC. But tweaking bad programs\services can cause problems too.
  • program that runs in the background freezes mouse

    There is a program in the background, and I can't do anything because it freezes my mouse all the time.  When I go to the control panel and attempt to "stop a program from running at startup", a window appears telling me to turn on Windows Defender. This stupid popup won't let me stop programs from running at startup.  Someone knows how to fix this?  Thank you!

    Hello


    Put the computer to boot and see if it helps.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.
     
    Note: follow step 7 to reset the computer to start as usual after the boot process.
     
    Note: identify the program that is causing the problem by doing as from the above proposed link.

    Hope this information helps.
