Programs run at startup despite being disabled in Msconfig
I have trouble with a couple of programs that run at startup which I don't want. Box.NET sync is a particular example. To start Msconfig I checked it, but when I reboot, it runs. When I check Msconfig, the input is always off, but there are now several entries for the synchronization of the box. Basically, whenever I have to uncheck, it creates a new section that runs at startup.
I'm having the same problem with GamersFirst and wallpaper app Kuvva. Neither of these are things that I want to run all the time, but none of them have an option in the application is does not run at startup. I don't want to uninstall them.
No doubt there is something in the registry, which makes these programs - is there a simple tool, I can use to stop what is happening? I use Soluto but he says he is unable to prevent them from running at startup.
Check your services, if there is a service, commissioning it may automatically start the program. These things can be launched in a multitude of places, Autoruns from SysInternals can help you to find these article, be careful with Autoruns, do not turn off the things you don't know!

Intel (r) common interface user programs running at startup.
I have a WINDOWS 7 LAPTOP. When I run a performance check, it lists. Programs that run at startup 3 are Intel(r) COMMON USER INTERFACE. 2. check
so they will be deleted from the start. If I remove 2 does make a difference which 2 they are all the same name.
How did I get started 3.
The name can be the same, but you will find that each starts a different program. No doubt
igfxtray.exe - starts the icon in the notification area
Hkcmd.exe - allows quick access keys
igfxpers.exe - persistence module
They are all connected to the Intel graphics driver. They can be disabled, but you will lose some functionality.
They do not use a lot of resources and are harmless.

I have a Vista operating system, I use Firefox as my browser and I have MS Security Essentials, I turn off my Windows Defender. I want to disable some programs from starting automatically, but I can't figure out how do it when I can not use this feature in Windows Defender. I'm not at all read and write or experienced in computers or software, so PLEASE keep this in mind. I really need advice for flush on a kindergarten, with each specific step the easiest way, so I can understand & follow him.
Thank you for your help in this matter, as well as for your understanding of my limitations.

Hello
Without knowing the programs you want to disable, I'll start by saying that I can't be responsible for adverse effect to the normal operation of your system.
That said...
- Click Start
- Type msconfig and press enter
- Click on the Startup tab
You will see checkboxes for programs that run at startup.
Or you can use a more comprehensive tool called autoruns...
http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx
Maybe is a better way to explore the settings for the programs themselves, there is often a check box for "do not run at startup.

With Vista, I get Defender error 0 x 80070424 when I click on ' default programs: stop a program from running at startup. " How can I make changes to startup?
Hello
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.
There is nothing to worry.
Using both programs at the same time can cause system conflicts, etc.
