PC Clean Up- Start.cpl will allow you to remove or disable things in your startup- and its FREE! Only delete or disable programs that you recognize!!! Ask me about ones you don't recognize.

More PC Clean Up- CCleaner will clean up history, junk files, dupes, index files, registry junk, temp files and so on. Easy to use. This helps your system run better and faster. Advanced SystemCare Free does a similar job and its my 2nd pick (free) . Auslogics Disk Defrag is great and, again, its FREE, as well as Auslogics Registry Defrag and Auslogic System Info at the same website...

Even more PC Cleanup- I like TweakNow WinSecret Professional to tweak registry settings without being the reg edit program. I like TweakNow RegCleaner Standard to clean up the registry from time to time- free- (especially if you install and uninstall alot). To recover memory, I like RAM Idle LE to recover memory, also free. When you open a program, it grabs RAM (memory). When you close it, the program is suppose to release all the RAM it took. Most programs do not do this effectively- this is sometimes called Memory Leak. RAM Idle LE fixes this issue.
