How to Disable Startup Apps in Windows 11 | Speed Up Boot Time (2026 Guide)
In this video, I show you how to disable startup apps in Windows 11 so your PC boots faster and feels smoother. You’ll learn how to turn off unnecessary programs that launch automatically using both Task Manager and the Settings → Apps → Startup menu.
Disabling startup apps does not uninstall them – it just stops them from running in the background when you sign in. This can reduce boot time and free up RAM/CPU for gaming, browsing or work. I also show which types of apps are usually safe to disable and which you should keep enabled (like antivirus).
What you’ll learn:
Open Task Manager and use the Startup apps tab
Turn off programs via Settings → Apps → Startup
Which common apps you can disable safely
