Startup Manager helps you monitor and control your Windows startup.
Many Windows users find that their computer slows down over time. Some of this is due to your hard-drives becoming fragmented, but another major part is the number of programs that are starting up with Windows. If your system tray is starting to fill with icons, this is a good hint that you are running some programs that you dont really need to.
How does Startup Manager help you?
Startup Manager will give you a single, central interface to easily control the programs and the services that start up with Windows.
Main features:
- Process & Service Control - When you remove a program or service from your startup, Startup Manager will check so see if it is currently running and turn the program on or off depending on your choice
- Improved Naming - Unlike MSCONFIG, Startup Manager attempts to locate additional information about programs. Rather than providing you with simply a filename to go off, it gives the program its correct name.
- More Information - Unlike MSCONFIG, Startup Manager gives you additional information to about the programs starting up with Windows. You can check the file names, how they are being started, go to the directory containing the programs and check to see if they are currently running.
- Startup Configurations - With Startup Manager, you can create Startup Configurations - sets of programs that you will start up with when you are doing particular types of work. For instance, when you are playing games & word processing, you dont really need to be running your web server, waiting for MySQL and its management console to start up etc. With Startup Manager, you can not only record different startup configurations for times when you are doing different jobs, but you can switch between them without restarting your machine.
