This list shows programs that may appear in the Windows startup process. While many startup files are required in the normal operation of Windows, some are optional and can cause some performance issues. Others are malware and should never be run. The Startups help provides more details.
The titles below (with the green background) show the name associated with the startup application, and often differ from the filename itself. |
