Startup Doctor Window

Untick "Alert Me" if you don't want Startup Doctor to warn you when changes are made to the startup list.
It is recommended that you leave it ticked so as to be warned if any changes are made. The registry is checked every 5 seconds for changes.
Only delete programs you don't intend using.
Move programs to the Removed list if you don't want them loaded at every startup but may want to run occasionally.
Programs Deleted or in the "Removed" list will not startup with Windows, but may be started by selecting then clicking the "Run" button.
Programs may also be removed from the "Removed" list or restored to the "Startups" List in the same manner.
If you "Delete" programs from the "Startups" List or from the "Removed" List, you can click the "Show All" button to display all of the original programs. You may then select and restore any as required.
If you try to restore a program that is already in the Startup List it will not be duplicated.
