Publisher's description
Absolute Start-Up provides a start-up monitor, start-up delay, and start-up programs sequence for Windows start-up. You can enable and disable the selected start-up items and also research additional details for an item with the help of online resources and get the recommendations from the database of potentially dangerous programs. This start-up manager has a smart start-up monitor to trace start-up changes and inform you about them.
Editor's review of Absolute Start-Up Though not the best of all possible start-up managers, Absolute Start-Up provides plenty of useful ways to fine-tune the boot process. It automatically checks for harmful and useless start-up items and disables them if you choose. ( Complete utter waste of space! it thunders about Microsoft Find Fast.) You can set a schedule for start-up programs to run, or have them start after a delay. You also can set hot keys to disable programs at start-up. Absolute Start-Up provides tools for managing Windows services and Internet Explorer extensions, too. The interface, though attractive, could be more straightforward. For instance, you can t change the order programs start simply by reordering them in the application window. We also would have liked a tool to automatically optimize Windows start-up. Besides imposing a stingy 21-day trial period, the demo prohibits adding new entries to the start-up list. Nevertheless, Absolute Start-Up s strong feature set makes it worthwhile for home and office use.
