• Deanna’s Freeware Spotlight: Safe Startup

  Posted on March 4, 2019 at 04:06 CST by woody • Comment in the Forums

  A simple program that warns you of recently installed programs that launch on startup. Think of Autoruns or the Task Manager’s Startup tab, with a much improved interface and simplified operation.

  And it’s free.

  Details in this week’s AskWoody Plus Newsletter 16.8.0, out this morning to AskWoody Plus Members.

• Deanna’s Freeware Spotlight: Safe Startup by PrivacyRoot

  Welcome to the inaugural Deanna’s Freeware Spotlight, a once-a-week-or-so missive from Randy and Deanna at OlderGeeks.com. They’re passionate about good freeware, and they maintain a download site “without ads, fake download buttons and crapware.”

  There are a gazillion startup editing programs out there. You know, the programs that let you disable programs from running when you turn on your computer. But Safe Startup by PrivacyRoot, S.R.O. is different. It runs in your system tray and notifies you when a program gets added to startup so you can kill it dead immediately. Go grab a copy, it’s free!
