TuneUp Utilities 2006 37
You can customize this navigation bar by clicking View > Navigation Bar.
When you select the Categories option, the navigation bar will contain a list of
all locations where startup items can be saved instead of the task list. All is
selected here by default. You can limit the selection of entries shown in the right
panel of the window by clicking a specific node such as Startup folder or
Registry in the list of categories. Then, only the startup items at these locations
will be shown.
When you select a startup item in the list, TuneUp StartUp Manager shows
information on the selected entry in the navigation bar on the left side of the
screen or in the information area at the bottom of the screen (depending on the
selected view mode). You can use this information to decide whether or not the
startup entry should be removed.
When you start the program the first time, all startup entries have a check mark
in front of them and are active. Click the check box in front of an entry to clear
it, and the program will no longer be started the next time you start Windows. In
this way, you can find out for certain whether the entry is needed without
removing it from the list entirely. If something doesn’t work properly the next
time you start Windows, all you have to do is select the check box again.
If you are certain that you no longer need an entry, you can remove it from the
list entirely by clicking Delete. But don’t worry, if need be, you can still restore
the entry with TuneUp RescueCenter.
If you wish to add a program to one of the startup folders yourself, click the Add
button. If you are using the category list (folder list) instead of the task pane,
please select the desired destination folder in the list first.
Select the desired application in the dialog or use the Browse button to manually
select an executable file from your drives.
