Windows Msconfig tool

Hi everyone.. Today we are gonna use a very simple tool in windows calles MSCONFIG.

Go to Start menu , then choose Run : Now type "msconfig" without the quotation marks as in the image above, press Enter . You will see a window like this one, choose the Start up tab: This contains all the application that start everytime you start your computer.

If you don't know some of them don't do anything, just leave them, check/uncheck only the programs you know. I hope that helped :)
