Hello everyone, I’m looking for ways to manage these apps better. They start automatically when I log in, but I’d like to stop them from running in the background. Since none of them have settings to turn off autostart, and they don’t appear in Task Manager’s menu either, I’m wondering if there’s another method to disable them without removing the apps. I want to keep them installed but not let them start automatically each time I log in. Thanks for your help!

When not found in Task Manager, it seems disabling isn't feasible.

Thanks, I'll attempt it when I'm back home. I'll mark it solved once it functions!

Press Ctrl+r, type "msconfig", click OK, select "Startup", then click "Open Task Manager". Right-click the desired app and choose Disable.
