How do I remove all the unchecked items in the startup list in Msconfig
so they dont appear next time Msconfig is run?

Many Thanks

First things first, but not necessarily in that order.

You can get a prog called system mechanic, shareware, which will allow you
to delete the ones you want.

Locate them in the registry and delete them. Make sure you make a copy
first.

Use Start - Run - REGEDIT

There are seven run keys in the registry that are used to start
programs:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\
RunServices
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServicesOnce
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce\Setup

Startup items that have been disabled with MSCONFIG will be listed in
an adjacent key with a minus sign added to the name (e.g. Run- or
RunOnce-)

Good luck
