User's Manual

Details
In the Details area, you can see the name of the selected program, its current status and the load on the system
from that program. You can use the switch to enable or disable the program. If no program is selected, you will
see an overview here showing how many programs are enabled/disabled or relevant to the system. If several pro-
grams are selected, the details area shows the number of programs with the various statuses. The status shown
next to the switch is the predominant status. In the next column, you can see the currentstatus of the program
in question.
Possible Statuses of Programs
In TuneUp Program Deactivator™, there are four different statuses for programs.
Desired status
In the Desired status column, you can see the status that you have selected for your programs. You can change
the desiredstatus by clicking on the switch.
Enabled
The program is fully enabled and is having an impact on the load on your computer.
Disabled
The services of the program that run continuously in the background have been turned off.
Required by system
This is a program that TuneUp Utilities has classified as relevant for the security or proper operation of your sys-
tem and the disabling of which could have serious consequences. Therefore, it is not possible to change the
status of one of these programs and the switch is grayed out.
Impactless
The program cannot be disabled because it does not have a negative impact on the system load. For this reason,
the switch is grayed out and cannot be changed.
Current status
In the Current status column to the right, there is further information about the current status of a program.
Permanently enabled
The program is fully functional and is causing a system load even when you are not using it.
Disabled until program startup
The program is fully disabled and will not cause any load on the system until you start it again manually. It will
be disabled again afterwards.
Disabled after idling or restart
The program cannot be turned off during normal operation; Program Deactivator will disable it automatically
the next time the computer is idle or the system is restarted.
Disabled after restart
The program cannot be turned off during normal operation; Program Deactivator will disable it automatically
the next time the system is restarted.
