First, you quote messages when you respond or someone may ignore you.

To manipulate the folder or shortcuts within, right-click the Start
button, select Explore and navigate to the folder.

I have no idea why you would consider moving the folder.
It is only a holding area for disabled startup items as already
explained. It is nothing special. It is not some magic place for all
startup items to "not start".

If you have some Sony utility you are concerned with, then please
supply exact details.

My bad, when it was listed under programs I automatically assumed.

Alright, so I am interested in putting a particular program within this
folder for it not too start as soon as I power on.

For some reason this Sony untility is running when I have it off in msconfig.

Do I goto C: and move the folder or how does this work? Thanks

Mike, the question remains:

Under start programs there is a program called "disable startup
items".

How can I add/remove items to this particular program?


Not a program but rather a folder but perhaps you don't know the
difference.

This particular folder is automatically created if, using MSConfig, you
uncheck a Startup entry that is shortcut located in the Programs | Startup
folder. That is the file in the Programs | Startup folder is moved to the
Programs | Disabled Startup Items folder, creating the folder if it
doesn't already exists.

Not, of course, that this information is going to help you one iota in
solving your problem with this unnamed Sony utility. Once you decide to
provide some details about this unnamed utility then perhaps someone will
be able to help you but until then you are doing little more than wasting
your time and that of those who might be able to help.
