nirsoft whatinstartup v1.0
alexsupra
[description]
a new utility in nirsoft web site, whatinstartup, displays the list of
all executable files (.exe) that automatically run when windows starts
up, and allows you to easily disable or delete them completely.
this utility replaces the old startuprun utility, which haven't been
updated for more than 4 years.
[features]
1. ability to work with external instance of windows: if you have
windows operating system with booting problems, you can use this
feature to connect to another
instance of windows, and disable/delete unwanted programs that runs at
startup.
2. permanent disabling: many programs add themselves into the windows
startup list without even asking you, and even if you disable or
delete them, these programs add themselves again in the next time that
you use them.
while whatinstartup is running, it monitors the startup lists in the
registry and in the file system.
if a disabled program added itself again into the list, whatinstartup
detect the change and automatically disable it again. this means that
as long as whatinstartup is running, the programs that you disabled
won't return back to windows startup.
