Task Bar Options

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.customize (More info?)

Does anyone know the RUN: command to turn off task bar
programs from starting automatically during starup? If
you dont know the Run: command, is there another way to
turn off these programs from auto start in the task bar?
Thanks.

Hi,

Start/Run: Msconfig
Then use the Startup Tab.

More info:

Check for an option to not having the icon load in the System Tray via the
program(s) in question.

Other options for removal:

Go to Start/Run and type in: msconfig. Go to the Startup Tab and uncheck
accordingly. Then run this script to remove the disabled items from the
registry.

Or...remove the runkeys from here: Start/Run/Regedit

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
