Every time I boot my PC, a folder window appears (C:\Program
Files\Logitech). I can't find where it comes from. Can anyone help?

Get Autoruns from here:

Run it to see where the folder is starting from.

Thanks. I ran the program in Windows mode - but couldn't find the
folder path listed. Perhaps I'm looking in the wrong location? The
folder is definitely there every time I boot - so 'something' is
initiating it.

Does anything appear as LOGi..... in any of the lists?

Check the following registry keys:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

and see if anything looks like Logitech's name (abbreviations, ....)
