The longer you use your computer and installing numerous applications, the slower it boots up. This is because bloatwares uses large amounts of system resources during Windows start-up.
Solution: Disable or Uninstall them! There are several ways to disable programs when Windows Vista Starts. However, Most of them are redundant.

2. Select Startup Programs from Category.
3. To remove a program from startup, select the program and click the Remove button. Use the Disable button to temporarily stop the program from starting when Windows starts. To make them active again, simply select the program and click the Enable button.
4. As easy as it sounds though, However, you cannot disable some programs using software explorer because the "Remove, Disable and Enable Buttons" are grayed out. So, Use the next tutorial.
