start up menu

Those aren't programs, those are services, two different things.

Umm, and what would use services? What would be necessary in order to
call some programs?

But I do see what you are unable to say: It looks like the OP asked
about startup programs and not services. There's a diff between a man
of a few words and a man of irrelevant words.

Thank you for the suggestions. I'll give it a try and see how it
works out.

I've lost track of where I got this, but here's a list that will
help you get started. Keep a list of what you do and what depends
on it, so you can turn it back on if it does something you didn't
expect tomorrow or wheneverg.
There is a web site that gives a good description of over 90% of
the possibilities too, but I ca't seem to locate it right now. If I
do remember/find it, i'll post back with the link.

I'm also not agreeing or disagreeing with anything in the article;
it can be different for each person.

David B,
The OP was not asking about 'application programs', rather anything
executable, which does include services.

Yup; my error. Sorry.

"How do I tell which programs are safe to disable"
Not the way I read it.

Only the OP can say for sure; it's a little vague and several responded
with guesses, but it looks like some clarification/verificaton might
have helped a lot.

Regards,

Twayne
