Hello,

Can somebody please tell me how I can stop programs/files opening up on start up and running in the memory of XP. In Win ’98 you just go “Start” then “Programs” then Accessories” then “Systems Tools” then “System Information” then “Tools” then “System Config. Utility” then “Tool” then “Start Up” and you would untick the programs that you wanted to permanently stop running in memory on start up.

In XP from “System Information” above you go “Software Environment” then “Start Up Programs”, all the start up programs are listed on the right hand side, now how do I permanently stop them from appearing in memory on start up ??

Regards
