hulland Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Been researching the cleaning of XP Pro and most "experts" say the best and most effective time is soon after a re-boot.I tried the / Auto command which works fine after (eg) browsing, but at sys. start up, it seems to be trying to clean at the same time as my AV/Firewall etc etc are starting/loading, therefore I would like to add a delay of 60 secs( or longer) so after my coffee is poured, I can sit down to a ready-to-go-PC that has also been crapcleaned. Is there an easy way please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hulland Posted February 7, 2008 Author Share Posted February 7, 2008 I use this program for delaying some programs at startup: http://www.r2.com.au/software.php?page=2&show=startdelay Thanks for that CeeCee, but I really prefer to just add a command rather than install a special application. ( By the way a year ago I tried that app and did extensive tests--in the end it SLOWED down my startup, that was the net effect!) Thanks anyway.
