IDEA: Startup program manager that runs at startup
ArchaicTimeFrog:
I'm looking for a startup manager program that will allow me choose what loads when the computer starts. What I want is for the program to run first, and then ask me what programs I want to run. I would also like to be able to run the program later, and then have it start up some of the programs I didn't earlier.
It might also be nice to have user-defined selectable profiles (ie: quickload, full load, etc.)

It's been awhile since I used this so try at your risk but it was pretty stable when I tested it, I just eventually didn't have the patience to set it correctly.

ArchaicTimeFrog:
Thanks, but your link is broken. Also, that doesn't really sound like what I'm looking for, if its just a startup program delayer. I'm looking for something that allows you to choose what programs start up immediately after you boot. Ie, you start up your computer, the program pops up, then you choose what programs run from a list it displays. I know I could probably achieve the same thing with a few bat files, but it would probably be a pain to set up. Thanks anyway, though.

And of course, you can easily enable/disable individual starting applications. You can even run it in interactive mode and decide during startup which apps you don't want to load.
Highly recommended. Since I'm using it I managed to get rid of many startup troubles.
ArchaicTimeFrog:
ooh, that does sound promising. Thanks!
