System Configuration Utility

This utility allows you to change how your PC boots, what services and programs start up with a reboot, and the option for system restore is located here as well. I use this quite often when I believe a service or program is running that is unnecessary or harmful to the PC. You can also use this utility to boot into safe mode. Just remember, when you boot into safe mode with this method, to remove the check from safe boot before you restart. To access this utility, you click Start>Run and type in msconfig.
