Default Removing An App From Startup?


Hi guys,

I am trying out a small App but don't want it to run every time I boot up.

I have tried removing it from the start-up using msconfig but it won't
budge - any suggestions?

Thanks Already!

Default Removing An App From Startup?

What app is it, and what path and file does msconfigStartup show for its entry?

When you try to disable it with msconfig and reboot, does it create a new entry with
a checkmark, leaving the unchecked entry also? Or does it re-check the entry you
unchecked?

If you disable something in msconfig and it comes back, you need to find an option
in the app's preferences to turn off its load-on-boot feature.
