In Vista, it's the same as in XP: run msconfig.
http://netsquirrel.com/msconfig/msconfig_vista.html shows it quite clearly.

I have Vista Home Premium which is running well generally but I also run Flight Simulator 9 & 10. Most games seem to run better if there are no other programs running in the background. I know I have some that auto run at startup yet I cannot find a way to stop them. They show on the bottom tool bar and according to the system maintenance page are listed in a All Users Startup Folder. I'm blowed if I can find this folder.
I've tried rt clicking on them but there is no option to close them.
With XP it used to be easy to do this but Vista is different.
We used to have a little program called EndItAll but I believe this doesn't work with Vista
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks, Barrie
