Anyway, my favourite is Autoruns, because it enumerates Winlogon notify items as well as numerous others.
Yep, I always have Autoruns installed and it's great. But for simple startup item manipulation I still prefer the old standby Startup Control Panel. Been using it since Windows 95 and it's never "out of date"  :)

:) Yeah, I did that for years. But Startup Control Panel is so much easier :). Even lets you move items from one startup location to another (ie, hklm....run to hkcu.....run or user startup or "all" startup). It's the first item pinned to my starup menu. And it's easy to check once a week just to make sure nothing tiptoed in there when I wasn't looking (cough - quicktime - cough).

Yep, amazing how these simple utilities that have been around at least 10 years still hold their own.

I had a whole stack of them delivered here, different names on all of them.

I thought I was supposed to cash them...
