How can i remove unwanted programs from my Startup??

Hello Mr. Robinson, 

The most causes of this problem is the settings to the program or in the Startup system. There is a procedures on how you will set to avoid appearing unwanted programs in your startup. Just follow the steps that I'm going to give you. I hope that with my solutions will fix your problem.

First thing to do is, you may need to set the Windows StartUp folder. Just go to Start – Programs – StartUp and you will see the programs. You have two choices on how you will do with the programs in Windows StartUp folder. First is to delete them if you are not using them anymore. Second is to make a Disabled StartUp Programs folder here C:Documents and SettingsAll UsersStart MenuPrograms and you will move there the files from Windows StartUp folder. And you can restart your computer.

You have to disable the startup programs to avoid them appearing in startup. You have to go to Start and select RUN. Type msconfig and press Enter. In the Startup tab you may uncheck the programs that you don't want load from the startup then click Apply and OK. Then Restart. In your startup there will be a dialog box that will appear, just check the "Don't show this message or launch the System Configuration Utility when Windows start" check box then click OK.

If unwanted program still appears in your startup, let's proceed in regedit. You are going to disable startup in regedit. So on your Start, click RUN and type regedit.exe. Then press ENTER, look for.

Just click NO to start on the system restore. Select "Restore my computer to an earlier time" and click Next. Then in the calendar you may choose the date, but remember you have to choose the date before the problem happen. Then click Next and your system will automatically restart.

Having viruses also can be the cause of that. The unwanted programs in your startup maybe affected by viruses. Do you have updated anti-virus? If you have, then scan your computer using your updated anti-virus to see if that program is affected of viruses. If it is affected, you have to remove that program then just reinstall it after. And remember always update your anti-virus regularly.
