the msconfig startup tab displays the startup items which
can be enabled or disabled. how do i delete the items in
here? I already uninstalled the programs related to these
and even deleted the registry entries.
If you're referring to items which have been unchecked but
still appear on the Startup page of msconfig, you can do the
following to remove them:
Start the Registry Editor.
Navigate to this location,
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared
Tools\MSConfig\startupreg
Delete any subfolders.
Do the same for this key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared
Tools\MSConfig\startupfolder
If you want, a script is available that will do this
automatically:
