Disabling Startup Programs To Make Your OS Boot Faster

4/08/2011 Don Caprio No comments

It can be really annoying when your computer boots very slowly because there are too many programs trying to start up. Many installed programs automatically gets into the startup folder at installation and excessively prolongs boot time. Your Windows might start up but won't be ready for proper use because the stratup programs are being loaded.

To disable these start up programs, follow these steps:

* Click on the start menu and select run

* Now type msconfig in the box

* Click on the Startup tab

* Uncheck the applications you want to remove from startup.

* To make your computer boot faster, you may unmark everything except your antivirus software just like I did.

* Now restart to make the changes have effect. At the next boot, just mark the box never to show it again!

This makes your operating system boot a lot faster.
