You may need to edit the startup settings in cases where you start to notice that the computer starts to boot longer than usual, and you cannot determine the exact reason. One of the surest ways to solve such problems is to remove unnecessary programs from startup.
Instructions
Step 1
The simplest and most intuitive way to clear startup parameters is to use specialized programs. However, there are a lot of such programs at the moment and it is not possible to disassemble them all. But in the standard Windows tools there is an equally functional tool.
Step 2
To call the program for editing system settings (which also includes startup), call the "Start" menu, in which you should select the "Run" item. You can also use the key combination Win + R, which will immediately bring up a window for entering system commands.
Step 3
Type a command such as “msconfig” and click “Ok” or Enter. As a result, the system settings window will open in front of you (see the figure).
Step 4
Go to the Startup tab. In the list presented, pay attention to the "Startup Item" column. Items marked with check marks mean that this program starts automatically when your operating system starts up and, accordingly, consumes certain system resources.
Step 5
Do not rush to delete everything. some programs support the normal functioning of the hardware and applications installed on your system. Uncheck only those items in which you are absolutely sure that you definitely do not need these executable files.
Step 6
Return the checkboxes to their original state if you find any malfunctions in the computer during the next boot of the system.
Step 7
Pay attention to the buttons "Enable all" and "Disable all". They may be required in cases where it is necessary to select or deselect a large number of points, and manually it would take too much time.
Step 8
Click the "OK" button after you have made the necessary settings for the startup list. Next, you will be prompted to reboot the system immediately, or do it later. Choose the option you want according to your preference.
