Automatic startup programs in Windows Vista can be annoying and they can hog alot of resources. There is no point in starting up a bunch of programs if you are not going to use them anyway.

So this little Vista tweak will help increase your startup time and will optimize your sytem. You will also have less processes running after startup, so you should get some better overall performance.

Disable Unwanted Startup Programs in Vista

  • Click start
  • Type “msconfig” into the search box
  • Click on the “startup” tab
  • Uncheck the services you don’t want to startup. Just be careful here, don’t uncheck vital services or things you are not sure of.
  • click “OK”
  • You can always add the services back in by following the same process.

Vista msconfig
