This is not Startup and MSConfig, for which I had a list of things I could shut off, back in the day.
Windows setup has changed since last I messed with it. Under Settings, there is a laundry list of apps that apparently plan to run in the background, sucking up battery life. I can turn them all off, or select a few to shutter.
I am out of the loop, and may be missing the big picture here, which is why I am asking: Is it not the case that most of these should be shut off?
Is there any reason some should be allowed to run in the background? I was thinking NVidia Control Panel is OK. Many people recommend shuttering Lenovo Vantage (actually, they recommend uninstalling it). But, ultimately, I am at a loss, unable to understand why all these would be running anyway.
Thanks for sparing a couple minutes of your time!
