What programs Start Up do need me?

My computer tells me whenever I'm doing a system check that I have too many startup items, first of all I don't know what I should or should not have to solve this problem.  Any ideas?

Type msconfig in the search on the left. Go to the Startup tab and disable that
you do not use. I disable all. You probably want to keep your
Antivirus, etc.

  • I need to know exactly what programs you will need to start up

    Two points:
     
    1. you have no * need * everything. Those who you should have is those that are
    important to * you *.
     
    2. There is no such thing as too much. What is important (see below) is
    * who * who they are.
     
    Here is my standard message on this topic:
     
    First of all, note that you should be in * all * programs that
    starts automatically, not only those who enter 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 he has the choice of not start (make sure you)
    Indeed choose not to run, not just a "don't show icon.
    Optional). Many can easily and better be arrested like that. If that is not
    work, run MSCONFIG from the start. Run the line, and then click the Startup tab.
    Uncheck the programs that you do not want to automatically start.
     
    However, if I were you, I wouldn't do it just for the application of
    the minimum number of running programs. Despite what many people say
    you, you should be concerned, not with the way * a lot * of these programs
    you run, but * that *. Some of them can degrade performance severely, 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, what its value is up to you which
    the performance cost is its running all the time. You can try
    Internet search 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.

  • Cannot open file because Windows needs to know what program created the file

    After downloading some files when I try to open the file, I get the message cannot open the file, windows needs to know what program created the file.

    Any suggestions?

    Perhaps no program has been assigned to this file format and so you cannot open these files.
    I put t know which files you downloaded, but you can choose an application installed that can open these files.

    Right click the file and I have to then choose open with.
    Then, you could choose the program you want to use.

    Windows Home vista 32 premium

    Hey Stella-50,

    How slow is slow? For example, my machine (e-machine E4264 2.2 ghz with 2 GB RAM) boots in 95 seconds. For me, I call it, in the average. I am currently in the process of looking for a new machine because it is already 3 years old, so maybe that OEN will be slightly faster to start.

    What you can 'turn off' will depend on which in fact initially launches upward and, unfortunately, you have not told us that at this moment. Is that you should not disable your anti software anti-virus (updater). nothing to do with your mouse and your keyboard etc.

    Perhaps, if you made a list of what application are actually being run at startup (via the msconfig Startup tab) can someone take a look at them and see if, or what can be disabled.

    Otherwise, you might take a glance at Startup Delayer http://www.r2.com.au/software.php?page=2&show=startdelay to see if you can delay the time different applications load to allow windows to start up more quickly. I haven't used so I can't say how good/bad it is.  It's a freeware.
