The Complete Guide to Speeding Up Your PC’s Startup
You just hit the power button your PC, and now
you've got enough time to brew a fresh pot of coffee for the entire
office—because that's how long it takes for your computer to go from
"on" to "ready to work." If your PC's bogged down by a bunch of programs
that automatically start up when it does, it can take forever to get
started every morning. Without a major hardware upgrade, there's not
much you can do to cut the time it takes for Windows to actually
boot—but you can trim and tweak the amount of time it takes for your
desktop to get to a working state. Let's take a look at a few ways you
can cut your Windows' desktop's loading times using built-in utilities
and third-party tools.When you install a new piece of software on your
computer these days, more often than not it will set a little bit of
itself to start up automatically when your PC does, either to check for
updates, make it seem faster, or just remind you that it's there at all
with a little icon in your system tray. Problem is, when you install
lots of software but don't use it all, these little startup entries can
suck away CPU cycles, memory, and time. Reclaim them by removing the
ones you don't need.
The
best, safest, and most basic place to start is in your Windows Start
menu's Startup program group. Navigate to it and see what programs
appear there. Right-click on any one and choose Delete if you don't need
it starting up on its own.
Once you've done that, it's time to bring out the big guns. Windows can also start up items planted in your registry automatically. To see what those are, from the Windows Start menu, choose Run..., and type
Now, this list can seem opaque and confusing. What is ctfmon or
RTHDCPL? The command column, which sometimes lists a full path to the
item's location, can sometimes give you a clue as to what the heck an
item actually is. As always, Google is also your friend in these
situations. From here you can uncheck items to stop them from starting
up. Don't uncheck stuff just because you don't know what it is; uncheck
stuff you know you don't need. For instance, if you're not a big iTunes
or Quicktime user but you've got the installed for occasional use,
uncheck QTTask and iTunesHelper.Once you've unchecked items in this
utility, when you restart your computer, Windows will prompt you, saying
that it's using "selective startup." That's ok—you can always renable
items by typing the
Messing with
If you don't want to install more software in order to clean up your system (which makes sense), System Explorer (see our original review)
offers a portable version, and its startup manager is beefy, with hooks
into the registry, an online virus checker, and even Google searches
for file names. In the System tab, hit the Startup tab to take a look at
what's auto-starting on your PC. Here's what it looks like.
As you can see, using the right-click context menu you can go straight
to the registry editor, or do a search on ProcessLibrary.com or Google
for the item. Also, the program's publisher and file path are included,
which offer more information about what's what and what you can afford
to disable. Besides CCleaner and SystemExplorer, Lifehacker readers also
like MZ Ultimate Tweaker and RegToy.
Remove Startup Items Without Downloading a Thing
While many programs promise to clean up your startup for you, you can make quite a few adjustments in Windows itself, without using any kind of extra tools.Once you've done that, it's time to bring out the big guns. Windows can also start up items planted in your registry automatically. To see what those are, from the Windows Start menu, choose Run..., and type
msconfig then hit Enter
to start the Windows System Configuration Utility. Switch to the
Startup tab to see a more comprehensive list of what's starting up
automatically. Here's what it looks like. msconfig command in the Run box again.Messing with
msconfig
takes somewhat of a brave and savvy Windows user, but a few third-party
Windows tweaking and cleaning tools offer startup managers that are
more user-friendly. Download and Run a Startup Cleaner Utility
There are literally a gazillion Windows tweaking utilities that include startup management capabilities, but lets take a look at two good ones. CCleaner (which stands for "Crap Cleaner", see our original review) can scan your system for all sorts of extras and get rid of them, but you're interested in the Startup manager. Hit the Tools button, then the Startup button to get there. Here's what your list will look like. As you can see, it offers a little more information than msconfig above (in the Program and File column), and that may help you decipher what's program is what. You can disable and delete items from your Startup using those respective buttons.Delay Item Start to Get to Work Faster
Of course, it's not that one program that's starting up automatically and slowing down your whole PC—it's all of them in aggregate. You may audit your startup list and realize that yes, you do want all these programs to start. But maybe you don't need them to start up at the exact moment you're dying to get into Outlook and read your email, or work on that urgent report. The Startup Delayer utility (our review) does just that—it delays items from starting up from anywhere from 20 seconds to several minutes to hours so you can start working sooner. For instance, if your printer driver pre-loads but you're not printing the moment you log on, you can delay it for a minute or two. Similarly, I really don't need the Java Updater process starting its work before I do, so it is a good candidate for delaying. Here's what Startup Delayer looks like.Don't Fall for the Myths
There are a lot of myths and misconceptions and misguided "secrets" to speeding up your PC published out there. Don't fall for them. If you delve deep enough into Windows optimization tips online you'll find tips about deleting page files, cleaning out your registry, setting your PC to use multiple cores manually, and lots of other authoritative-sounding tweaks. Before you do any of that, check out the How-To Geek's awesome guide to debunking Windows performance-tweaking myths. Have you had any startup editing revelations?
