    I have it on Normal startup now, but there are a lot of apps starting up.
    Do I need all these start up? What can I safely uncheck that wont mess anything up? Thx

    You don't need this one, but you might want to keep that one.

    Uhh can you be anymore vague? How are we supposed to know if you need those or not if you don't tell us what they are?

    So how about showing us what you have on your startup.

    Type "bloatware" into the search box on the top right of your screen. It'll save everyone here quite a bit of typing.

    That is an actual picture of *him*, duh...

    This is really getting off topic, but speak for yourself, not "everyone".

    If you would take a moment to look at the first post you'd see there really isn't a "topic" to this thread. The original poster left us like a cliffhanger.

    I'm not sure how to explain to you that I in no way was speaking for "everyone".

    I thought the original sentence was pretty self explanatory.

    It was a joke: you are "one", not "everyone". Aka, me saying that you're the only one who doesn't like pictures of that nature...

    But there goes that one...We should really close this thread.
