Bootup Launches 2 applications

G

Guest

When my system (newly upgraded from Windows ME) boots up each time it launches 2 applications instead of just presenting me with the Desktop. I am not sure why these 2 apps are launching but my sense is that they are recently used by me but not active when I shut the computer down

I can not find a way to make them stop launching at boot up. They are not in my startup windows group either

Any suggestions or am I overlooking something obvious

Thanks for the help..

Hi,

Start/.run msconfig and disable them on the startup tab.

To locate where they are loading from, start/run msinfo32, expand the
software environment and click on the startup programs. This should show you
what is loading at boot and where it is loading from.
