Description of StartRight

When Windows boots, the OS starts all of your autoloading programs almost simultaneously. The autostart app that appears to load last is probably the one that takes the longest time. You need something that lets you control the order and insert pauses between programs. That way, you can eliminate conflicts caused by multiple programs loading simultaneously, and you can choose which program welcomes you when you start your day. You can't do this with Windows alone. The free StartRight utility from Jackass JoeJoe's lets you reorder Windows' autoloading programs and set delays for each. The utility lacks a help file, but it's not too difficult to figure out how to use it. Rather than run an installation program, you save the StartRight.exe file in a convenient location on your system, double-click the file to launch the program, and click the Install button. StartRight then takes control of your autoloading apps. Click the Edit button to bring up a dialog box where you can change the order in which the programs load and set the pause (in nanoseconds) between program loads.
