What is AutorunCop?

AutorunCop is a program for controlling the Startup list where the programs that should be automatically launched when the system is started are specified. The Startup list allows you to see what programs are launched at Windows startup. You can use this list to disable starting any programs automatically or completely remove them from the list. AutorunCop is especially useful for tweaking the system (since preventing unnecessary programs from being started automatically allows you to save system resources and to increase the system performance) and also for finding and removing various malicious programs that often adds itself to the Startup list.


AutorunCop features

AutorunCop has the following features:

• Modifying the Startup list (removing, adding, editing and blocking) in the Windows registry and in the "Start" menu.
• Controlling Startup items, AutorunCop constantly monitors changes in the Startup list, informs you about these changes and allows you to choose what to do with the modified or new item (block, remove or allow it to be added to the Startup list).

AutorunCop will help you:
