If you want to learn how to disable items from your startup menu, first start with the actual program itself, look in settings. Second you remove it from the startup menu folder. Third step is to look at your RUN keys in the registry. HKEY>LM>Software>Microsoft>Windows>Current Version > Run and Run Once Today I come across another posting of someone giving directions to use MSCONFIG to disable items from starting up. However, what you don't realize is MSCONFIG is a troubleshooting tool, not something to use to disable a program you don't know how to disable correctly in the first place. Selective startup is only for troubleshooting bootup and startup problems temporarily disabling items that you are going to enable later once you figured out the problem. MSCONFIG is not a permament fix to anything, nothing, zip, zilch, nada. MSCONFIG is a troubleshooting tool used mainly by TRAINED and QUALIFIED technicians to troubleshoot boot problems. Can you image the poor guy using MSCONFIG for 10 years was ignorant for 10 years as well?

Business companies already have their hands on Windows 7 and if you use auslogics and ccleaner you'll be better off than messing with the registry.
