    FYI: I still have another of their programs and Autorun Organizer is built in. It does not run on startup - it just uses scheduled tasks to delay some startup items. Entries are in the scheduled task.

    For the record, Windows 10 also starts software, which was left opened upon shutdown/restart.
    If that is the case, make sure to close it before shutdown or create a shortcut "shutdown /s /f /t 0"

    Okay I've used Autorun Organizer before and I don't think that you can easily disable it. Maybe you could just delete the task?

    Which windows/application services can safely run on Delayed Start? - Windows 10 Forums
    Oh good! Maybe you can share your thoughts if you feel Autorun Organizer is beneficial in any way to run, otherwise I'll just uninstall it. My feeling is that any software that runs at will without giving the user control over it better be really good to earn that privilege.

    Well it depends upon what you actually need to launch on startup - too many items and you would get a smoother boot if some items are delayed. Also there might be cases where you need all security software to load and settle down before launching other third party software.

    It does not run at all. It just creates scheduled tasks as specified by you.

    If you usually exeprience a smooth boot and do not wish to delay, add or disable items then you do not need the software.

    Correction: StartupCheckingService.exe might run in the background.
