How to stop from Auto Running at startup?

Post by Paradox »

Okay here's the dealeo, I installed Sabnzbd on windows 7 to give it a try and liked it but am not going to be needing it for a month or so. I killed the task from running, but every time I restart windows it auto-runs (bc I told it to during installation). I can't figure out how it is autorunning though so I can disable it.

I've looked and it's not running as a service, it's not in the startup folder, and I don't see any reference to it in MSCONFIG.

HOW do i keep it from auto loading ? ???

Thanks in advance.

Uninstall it, but uncheck the options to remove data.
The alternative is to use autoruns from SysInternals (now Microsoft).

Seems silly that there isn't a way to change the autorun option after installing, but if that's what I have to do then I'll do it.


Thanks
