📎 AI Summary:
The thread discusses optimizing Windows startup times by managing startup programs through Task Manager, emphasizing that disabling unnecessary items can speed up booting. The original post explains how to identify and control startup stress levels, while a later contributor suggests uninstalling large, replaceable programs, enabling fastboot, skipping boot checks, and delaying non-essential startup items for further improvement. Overall, the consensus encourages minimizing startup load for faster boot times.

Items show amount of 'stress' they exert @ boot up. Each can be Disabled/Enabled. Most, to all, do not need to be running @ startup. You can select what is or is not from all to none or any amount in between; obviously, there is the most impact from those that are rated High & or Medium. Tip here is, the fewer running @ Startup, the faster the Bootup time will be.

Cheers,

Drew

Also, huge programs that can be uninstalled & replaced with another program that does the same/similar things & with a smaller footprint should be used instead. Turn on fastboot and skip boot checks on startup. Delay needed startup items for 1 minute and disable the non essential one's. my 2 cents
