Startup (1) - Medium - The Startup section of your registry refers to one or

more invalid files This will dramatically slow down your PC and cause some

applications not to run.

WKDetect.exe is part of Microsoft Works. The process automatically checks
for new updates when you are online.

This program is not required to start automatically as you can run it when
you need to.

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Works\WkDetect.exe

Charlene, although you can delete its entry in the registry to prevent it
from starting with Windows, the next time you open Works the process will
set again, so it's largely an exercise in futility.
