I have a New Toshiba and in cleaning up last night, I ended up screwing up my
start bar. I was trying to get rid of some "useless" icons in the program
list and ended up putting them in a new folder that use to be entitled
Startup. I renamed it Windows just to put a name on it. Now, everytime I
turn my computer on, everything that is in that folder starts...eight things
to be exact. It's not bad stuff, just meaningless programs. Can someone
tell me what to leave in that folder (Startup) because I can't remember?
Then, I can put everything else in another folder. I would appreciate any
and all help. THANKS!!!

Sarah,

I'm not sure what you need in the folder since I don't know what programs
you have, but you can probably get rid of everything except MS Office (if you
have it), MS Works (if you have it), a printer/scanner program, or an AOL
program.

If there is anything you are unsure about, reply to this post with the
question and I will get back to you.

-Chris

Leave in there whatever you want to start automatically. Only you can
tell what's there. Or call Toshiba tech support.
