    Side note: If you want to disable all that NVidia telemetry ET call home stuff, take a look here. Explains and show what to un-check. Perfectly safe.

    Best way to check, (and in reality the only way), is to uncheck the box and then reboot a few times then if it's the culprit after a few days when you are sure you can actually right click the entry and delete it
    Will do, Thx man :)

    Oh the other thing I usually do is those File Not Found entries although they do not directly harm anything unchecking them will prevent them running and failing which will save time :)

    Help for Windows 10 starts with windows.-not-found.pngUnticked most of them but these 5 game me error, telling me that i'm not allowed to change them...
    Do i ignore them or should i try to delete the entries ?

    As with most of the Sysinternals suite everything is done at standard user level unless you opt for admin access

    There is an option to run as administrator,and is located in the File menu, try to uncheck the items after clicking this option (it will cause a refresh of Autoruns)

    if you ever get an error when in Administrator mode I would back away from that item and do further research (autoruns gives this access within the program Ctrl-M)

    Those particular files are part of the 32/64 bit virtualization system so I have left them in place (not sure so stay cautious )

    Searched and found following.

    Even tho this is for win8 i guess it applies to win10 aswell.

    A:
    Don't be concerned if autoruns reports these files as not found. Just ignore it. These three files are critical to (and invisible to) 32-bit processes running on a 64-bit processor.

    For a little fun you can see this by launching both the native and x86 versions of Windows PowerShell, type the following in both. Somewhat surprisingly you'll get different results:

    cd $env:windir\system32
    dir wow*

    I knew they were related to the system, didn't know what exactly they did so backed away - a lot of users we see here are dealing with issues that might have been avoided - more that once I have seen people post things like "I Didn't recognise the file so I deleted it ... .... and now such and such does not work"

    Thanks for reminding me of this, too. Just used it to find several items I hadn't figured out how to access any other way. Great tool!

    After many many restarts i have yet to see my chrome startup with windows, so without jinxing myself
    ( hopefully )
    i think the issue was that " Application Restart #1" unticking it + deleting it seem to have worked.
    Also unticked those " files not found "
    Huge thanks to Barman58 :)

    If the issue appears again, i'll come back
    if not then consider my problem as Solved :)
