In the never ending battle to keep your computer running quickly and smoothly, one of the less obvious culprits are the programs that start each time you start your computer. Most if not all programs load in the background so you don’t actually see them starting up. They are however taking up resources and slowing your computer down not just when they are running, but especially when they are starting up.
