Disabling startup apps
Also searched as: startup apps · msconfig · boot time · autostart
What it does
Stops vendor bloat (RGB suites, updaters) from launching at boot.
The honest verdict
Graded real. The biggest FELT win in all of debloating — faster boots, fewer background stutter sources. Safe: disabling startup doesn't uninstall anything.
Where it genuinely fits a rig, Compy can recommend it — applied with a snapshot first and a one-click rollback after, like every change it makes.
