Operating SystemsQuestion 7 of 100
A technician wants to see startup impact and disable programs that launch at boot on a modern Windows client. Which tool is most appropriate?
a.msconfig Boot tab
b.Task Manager Startup tab
c.Registry Editor Run key only
d.Services console
Explanation
On Windows 10/11, the Startup tab in Task Manager lists auto-start apps with their startup impact and allows disabling them. msconfig no longer manages the startup app list. Editing the registry directly is riskier and less convenient.
