How to Delete Messages From Windows Startup


1. While holding down the Windows key--the key on the keyboard that has the Windows logo on it, typically to the left of the space bar--hit 'R.' This opens the Run dialog box and ensures any commands executed within it are completed with full administrator privileges.
2. Type the word 'msconfig.' The Microsoft System Configuration utility appears.
3. Click the 'Startup' tab. This displays a list of all of the applications that run when Windows first starts.
4. Identify the software in the list corresponding to the startup message that requires removal. The startup message will typically identify itself by a name that is listed in the 'Startup Item' column of the 'Startup' tab from the Microsoft System Configuration utility. Uncheck the box next to any items that are displaying unwanted messages upon load of the operating system.
5. Click 'Apply.' Click 'OK.' Reboot the computer. The specified changes will take effect, and any disabled startup items will no longer display messages when starting Windows.
