Do you find that your device is taking longer to start up, particularly when you first boot up Windows? This is most likely due to the large number of applications that start up with Windows.

Normally, we have no power over it, but with this utility, we will be able to hold these programmes at bay.

Quick StartUp is a free Windows tool that allows you to see what programmes are running at your login and, in turn, delete or add programmes to that login.

It has a nice and simple user interface. It displays detailed information about each operation, including the source file and application.

We can eliminate processes from the start without risking anything because we will already know what we are doing.

All of this adds up to a valuable programme that is simple to use and, of course, worth considering.
