Hi
I have recently installed an SSD and expected to see improved boot speed. There is still a delay in boot approx 40 seconds. I looked into Event Viewer under Boot Performance Monitoring and it shows the following:
"This application took longer than usual to start up, resulting in a performance degradation in the system startup process:
File Name : opera.exe
Friendly Name : Opera Internet Browser
Version : 45.0.2552.812
Total Time : 26282ms
Degradation Time : 21282ms"
I have never setup Opera to run at startup so am stumped as to why it is trying to load. When the system finally loads there are not any opera processes running in the Task Manager. I have checked in the Startup folder and msconfig to see to see what programs are listed to run at startup but Opera is not listed there. Have also looked in the following registry keys:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServices HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServicesOnce HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx
And there is still no listing for Opera. The only thing that I can think of is that another process is run that spawns Opera.
So my question, is there a way to find out if another process is doing this at startup. Bearing in mind that upon boot completion opera is not listed as a running process so I can't use some thing like Process Explorer to trace back.
I hope that this makes sense and someone may be able to help or point me in the right direction.
Kind Regards
Paul
