Some programs have a built-in setting to enable or disable them from running on startup.
You can do an Internet search for the name of a program if you aren't sure what it is or what it does. If you use the program every day or if it's necessary for the operation of your computer, you should leave it enabled on startup. You don't need to disable most applications, but disabling the ones you don't always need or ones that are demanding on your computer's resources can make a big difference. Among other ways to keep your computer running smoothly, you can disable applications from running on startup to improve its performance.īefore you disable an application from starting, consider whether you should. While this is necessary for your computer to function, too many applications running on startup can slow down your computer. You may not realize it, but your computer runs several applications as soon as it starts.
