How do I find out what's running when I start windows

  • 아티클

And furthermore.. how do i turn it off? 

I was recently asked what application you should use to detect programs and services that run when you start windows.  While it's not my area of expertise I would personally recommend Autoruns. It's fairly comprehensive, links to online searches, is free of additional spyware, and works on just about any version of windows.

    MSCONFIG.EXE?

    MSConfig is good since it comes installed with windows, but Autoruns has some nice shortcuts to online search when you want to find out what something is.

    I would actually recommend a Microsoft product that helps you avoid malicious software, namely Windows Defender at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=435bfce7-da2b-4a6a-afa4-f7f14e605a0d. This has a view that lets you view and managed autorun apps, services, running programs, and winsock providers. Just click on Tools, then Software Explorer. Defender runs on XP and newer.

    Good call Heath. Defender is good. People seem to miss that Autoruns is also now a "MIcrosoft Product" since we purchase Sysinternals.  :-)

    Try Mike Lins Startup checker thingy. It plants itself in the control panel and just works. Well. http://www.mlin.net/StartupCPL.shtml Also allows you to move object from startup area to startup area. It also keep a deleted section. Faverin
