TuneUp StartUp Manager shows a list of all found startup entries in its main
window.
The TuneUp StartUp Manager navigation bar is located on the left side of the
window. By default, it contains a list of Tasks that give you access to frequently
used functions. Important information on the currently selected startup entry is
shown beneath this list.
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. 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. If need be, you can still restore the entry with
TuneUp Rescue Center.
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.
