Start up

[Stellar]

can someone tell me how to find a list of programs that are running at
start up?

 

[Rich Barry]

Sure, go to Start>Run type: msconfig click Ok and select the Startup
Tab.

 

[Wesley Vogel]

Use System Information...
Start | Run | Type: msinfo32 | When that opens |
Click the [+] next to Software Environment | Click Startup Programs

To copy the list...
Click in the right hand pane and hit Ctrl + C and paste into Notepad or
whatever.

Copy the list of running Processes in Win XP

msinfo32 /categories +SWEnvRunningTasks /report "%userprofile%\desktop\msinfort.txt"

but if you want to know what files are loaded

msinfo32 /categories +SWEnvLoadedModules /report "%userprofile%\desktop\msinfolm.txt"

Type them in start run and watch a file magically appear on your desktop.

Win XP Utilities, Startup Programs Tracker. This utility tracks the common startup
vectors and will show you what is loading at startup and from where. The included
Help gives a brief tutorial with some good information on removing the entries that
the program finds.

Thanks, Taurian. I was looking for that.

All I could find were msinfo32 switches that loaded *everything* from System
Info into a text file.
