What's the difference between unticking things in autoruns and
deleting them? I can see that if you delete them you've lost the
details, but how does autoruns implement an untick: it must
somehow retain (to preserve the details0 but disable things?

When you disable an item in Autoruns it usually renames a Registry
entry. When you re-enable it, it renames the entry to its previous
name.
