QuickTime Killer

QuickTime Killer is a compact application that enables you to remove the QuickTime startup entry. You can use this tool if you do not need to have QuickTime running in the background all the time.

There are many programs that use QuickTime to play multimedia content such as movies and sound effects. QuickTime usually installs a startup entry in the registry and has a background process that enables it to start quicker when you open a file.

While it might not be such a big deal to most users, these items consume computer resources and although they are not required every day. If you do not use the player very often and you want to start the computer faster, this program can help you remove the startup entry.

It runs silently without any intervention from the user, ends the background process and removes the startup entry in just a second. You just have to run the executable file in order to apply the changes.

You can perform these operations manually but then you have to check them regularly to see if the settings haven't been restored by QuickTime. This app is set to automatically make the modifications at every startup and to close after the adjustments are finished.

If you care about your system resources and want to stop QuickTime from using them, QuickTime Killer is an install-and-forget solution.
