How can MSConfig prevent programs from running?

0

In some cases, you may only want to disable one part of a program, or the program may not have provided an uninstall entry. Windows 98/Me/XP users can use the System Configuration Utility (MSConfig) that is provided as part of those versions of Windows: Click Start | Run and type msconfig. Then click the Startup tab. You will see a list of programs that will run each time you start your PC. Clear the checkbox next to an item to prevent it from running. If you later find that you need that program, go back to MSConfig and check the box next to that item, and reboot.
