HOW TO CHOOSE THE APPLICATIONS THAT ARE EXECUTED AT THE START OF WINDOWS 8

[Blexfraptor]

Many applications that we install on our computer are automatically activated to boot at the start of the system. This is a disadvantage because the higher the number of these, the longer it will take the system to load and the more RAM memory will be used unnecessarily.

It is recommended that all those applications that we do not use are usually deactivated at the beginning of the system, gaining speed, performance and reducing the loading time of the operating system.

In the previous versions of Windows, the automatic start was running the application "msconfig", however, with the new Windows 8 this task has been greatly simplified and the programs that start at the beginning of the system are now located in the administrator. System tasks.

To open this task manager we must press the key combination "Control + Shift + Escape" and a window similar to the following will appear.

Click on the button "More details" to see the full task manager of our system.

 

At the top we will see a series of tabs. To control the applications that start in our system we must select the "Start" tab and we will see a section similar to the following one.

All the applications that will appear here are those that start at the beginning of the system. We can enable and disable them to our liking. To disable the automatic start of an application simply we must right click on it and select the entry "Disable"

We must be careful with the applications that we disable since some of them may be necessary for the correct functioning of the system. We should limit ourselves to disable the startup of manually installed applications such as Adobe, Skype, Java, etc. We should never disable the boot of the system drivers because without them the operation may not be optimal.

Once the programs that we do not want to boot have been disabled, we must restart the system and in the next boot we will not have those applications loaded by default in memory
