Have you ever had the issue of programs such as Skype, uTorrent or any other programs always launching at startup? This tutorial will show you how to change which programs startup when your computer boots up.
First, you will need to launch "msconfig.exe"m you can search for it in the start menu:
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Next, go to the "Startup" tab:
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Now you can select/deselect the programs you want to launch at startup. Once you have done that, click "Apply" and then "Ok". When you reboot, you should see that your changes have taken effect!
If you need any help, feel free to PM me
