Vista Tip 14: Identify Autostart Programs

Vista Tip 14: Identify Autostart Programs
February 14, 2008 Jens

Vista brings an out-of-the-box tool for identifying and changing autostart programs, but it’s somewhat hidden.

To access it:

  • Search for “Windows Defender” in the Start Menu
  • Go to Tools -> Software Explorer
  • Select the Category “Startup Programs”

Here you can browse, disable and remove specific autostart programs.
