I was just reading about this over on Martin Lewis' techi board. Ive downloaded it with trepidation as my start up on here takes ages or so it seems when you are desperate to do some urgent letters or invoices.
It runs when you start up your computer and analyses what items are starting up. It then tells you which items are essential, so dont touch them, which ones you could take off and some you may want to delay. You can carry on typing or surfing whilst its doing it as it takes about 5 or so minutes - or did when I had a go.
Anyway I had a bash and it told me that my start up time was 2 minutes 10 seconds. It then told me what items were starting up and how long each took to start up. It then gave me options to delay some items from starting until after the computer had generally booted up.
So heart in mouth I looked at what it called the No brainer list - those that couldnt harm the puter if you delayed them and some I dont even recognise so I left them but I did click on delay for the HP imagining item, the kaspersky internet security and a couple of other things. I then restarted and the start up time was halved.
The ones I delayed appeared after start up and before I connected to the internet.
Do you reckon its safe to use, seems ok and cor, it was fast to start up compared with normal?
"Soluto bills itself as an "Anti-Frustration Software", and it's not hard to see why—it tracks all the applications in your system boot process, and tells you exactly which ones are slowing you down.
Once you've installed the software and rebooted your PC, Soluto springs into action, tracking every single process that runs during the boot process, and then allows you to easily drill down into the list of processes to see exact times for each one. To make it easier for the layman to understand what processes can be removed, the applications are grouped into "No-brainer" or "Potentially removable" groups. "
Oh it says if you uninstall the program, all the start up items will be reinstalled again on start up.
PC World and other experts seem to think its good.
