A Start-up item is a program that starts when a user logs in, or at other predetermined times. The programs may run on the user’s desktop, or they might be part of an application, such as a daemon or launch agent.
Most applications will ask you if they can be started at startup, and some will have an option or checkbox in their preferences that allows you to choose whether to allow the app to start automatically. However, some programs do not ask you, and they may end up running as a background process with potentially undesirable consequences.
In Windows, there is an excellent command line tool called MSConfig that allows you to view all the secret software 창업아이템 that’s launching at startup time. This is very effective at finding out what programs are doing behind your back, but it isn’t exactly easy to use. Fortunately, the Mac has a much easier and more visual way of controlling startup items: the Task Manager Startup tab.
The Startup tab shows you a list of all the apps that will start up at login, with a plus and minus sign next to each one. Choosing the minus sign will remove the app from the list, and you can also add new apps to the list by using the plus sign. There’s no easy way to see which apps have the most impact on startup time like in MSConfig, but the Startup tab does tell you what kind of software each item is, which can help you decide whether or not it should be running at startup.
If an app isn’t showing in the Startup folder, you can try adding it to the list by right-clicking on it and selecting Options from the menu. This will open a window where you can set the app to start up at login, or you can set it to always require admin privileges to run (if you need to).여자창업
You should be aware that some of these tools are quite powerful and can cause serious problems if used incorrectly. Therefore, before you change anything, be sure to perform a search for online guides to ensure that you are not doing anything dangerous. Similarly, when removing binary and string values from the Registry Editor, you should always perform a backup or restore point.
The GUI versions of these tools are more convenient to use, but they do not provide the same level of detail about the items they’re working with as the command line version does. For example, the Startup tab in the GUI version of the Task Manager shows you a few things that aren’t easily visible elsewhere: the status and Startup impact. The status is what the OS believes to be the state of the item at startup, and the Startup impact indicates how much CPU and memory that the item is consuming during the boot and login process. Those values correspond to the HKCU and HKLM Run and RunOnce registry locations mentioned earlier.
