how does this compare to autorun? been using that for a while and just wanted to know, I'll try this one too later if I need it before using autorun
I really didn't think there was anything else a startup program should do but Nirsoft continues to surprise.
Very handy, user friendly. Shows much more info than msconfig and the window can be maxinized.

I currently use AUTORUNS to decrap my Windows startup and I use WHATINSTARTUP to add custom nifty handy dandy startup entries that I need.
