Easy-Run

Easy-Run is an application that gives you the possibility to control programs which automatically launch at system startup by removing their entries from the autorun sequence, editing properties, or adding new items to run by default every time you boot your computer.

Installing it doesn't take long, but it's necessary to download and install .NET Framework unless you already have it. Administrative rights are required too, since the tool accesses the Windows registry and makes modifications.

The interface looks a bit unusual due to the dark theme and layout, but it's easy to figure out. The autorun apps are automatically identified at startup and listed, so you can check out their names and paths.

You can disable autorun entries and remove them from the list, add new ones by browsing the programs' locations and entering display names, as well as edit properties when it comes to the old and new path and name, along with PC users (only current user or all).

It's also possible to examine app properties to find out the company, version, product name, copyright, trademark, description, language, internal name, and comments. The list of autorun tools can be refreshed if any changes were made in the meantime.

The software utility was light on system resources in our tests, as it needed little memory and CPU to work properly. It was stable in its runtime and didn't affect other running tools.

On the other hand, Easy-Run failed to identify all autorun applications in our case. The product doesn't bring anything new to the table, as similar functionality is offered via the msconfig.exe built-in Windows utility. Nevertheless, it's easy to use by anyone looking to improve their computer's loading time by removing unnecessary autorun apps.
