Prevent startup programs from loading just before Windows fully lo

I know there is a key or key combination you press before Window fully loads
to stop startup programs from loading. This is only temporary so I am not
looking to remove any programs from the startup folder. Does anyone know what
the keys are?
Thanks.

Holding down the Shift key will prevent items stored in the
Startup folder from launching. Keep in mind that programs that
are launched at startup through registry keys will not be
affected.

Note: If you have your system configured to automatically logon
a user account, holding the Shift key down will disable this
feature. As soon as you enter your logon credentials, go back
to holding down the Shift key.

Good luck
