Unfortunately this program suffers from "advertising bloatware". You try accessing the several features within the "registered" program and it hijacks your computer to an online sales pitch. Purchasing a premium version of this would likely be a nightmare. Thanks anyway GOTD.

You can do most of those disabling in win10 by doing your own setup, furthermore, after installing it, I get 48 seconds boot up time instead of 42 sec before installing it. Every computer is differently configured and your results may vary, but the bottom line is this, you will need those win10 modules running in the background sooner or late, some will load ahead and some will load after the main win10 screen shows up. It does not hurt to install it but on the other hand, why have this software running 24/7 in the background.

My computer is very slow to start and BootRacer shows my startup programs are not the cause.
What is needed is a program to identify other causes such as drivers.

"My computer is very slow to start and BootRacer shows my startup programs are not the cause."

You can try disabling some services using msconfig [type msconfig in the Run box & click OK]. You can also try booting into Safe Mode, which disables most services to see if that has an impact, before trying to narrow it down to one or a few services. You can run one or more malware scans -- malware starting with Windows could be the culprit.

That said, Windows can take a while to start if it's installed on a conventional hard drive, particularly if the drive is slower, and/or if the CPU is on the lower end of the food chain. We've got a couple of devices with Intel Atom CPUs, one with a Celeron, & one with an i3 -- they simply take a while, even after Windows 10 has started before they're fully up & ready.
