Solve : Wanna help with this "Start-up Item"!? |
|
Answer» Hi Geeks! What implication could result in on DISABLING the "Groove Monitor" from Start-up Item? Nothing at all, unless you use Groove - http://office.microsoft.com/groove/Groove Monitor is part of Microsoft Office Groove 2007, which is installed as part of Office 2007. It allows teams of developers to create workspaces where information and files can be shared and used as a team. For more information see, http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/groove/HA101650611033.aspx To uninstall it, go to add/remove programs, select MS Office 2007 - change - check the add/remove option - go down to the MSOfficeGroove box and select not available from the drop down list, then select continue. MSCONFIG isn't meant to be a startup manager. It's a troubleshooting tool... StartupLite
---------- For additional removals. Be sure you are 100% sure what you are disabling. If you don't know, don't do it! Download StartUp 1.3 * Open StartUp 1.3 and you will see a list of your startups. * RIGHT click any startup you do not want and choose Remove * Once complete choose Apply then ExitQuote MSCONFIG isn't meant to be a startup manager. It's a troubleshooting tool... Yet you see people recommending this method here about 30 times a week if not more. Good Point EF.I see it often and normally just carry on... It can be an argumentative topic Disabling or Removal of an unnecessary "Start-up Item" can easily be accomplished using CCleaner. My original post contains the Screenshot from CCleaner only! It is quite a Handy tool, very popular one! Moreover, latest version incorporates "System Restore" feature as well to undo any untoward step! GO for CCleaner!An old program has been updated. Start Up Cop! http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2097,00.asp Good tool for finding strange start ups.I use Mike Lin's Startup Monitor together with his Startup Control Panel. http://www.mlin.net/StartupMonitor.shtmlIf I'm not mistaken CCleaner uses the same method as Msconfig. It's not a real startup manager.I've always used SysInternals AutoRuns, since it has more then just the RUN registry entries, and includes stuff like winlogon NOTIFY hooks and so forth. It's funny, how people just ignore the dialog that appears after rebooting with msconfig enabled, which clearly states that it is more a diagnostic tool then anything. I've never REALLY liked the tools that include a method to "disable" and "enable" them, by moving the particular keys into and out of a subkey of the run key. Why? Well- you never really know what MS might do in the future! maybe they will change it so that values in subkeys are run in the same process address SPACE- meaning these "disabled" items will all run anyway. I've always opted for deletion.Quote from: Dias de verano on May 05, 2009, 12:50:40 AM I use Mike Lin's Startup Monitor together with his Startup Control Panel. Bingo ! ! Same here...I prefer to suggest tools that don't create even more questions... Baby steps No offense to anyone |
