    Welcome meemoe,

    See if this helps,

    For on screen keyboard, click the options button then towards the bottom, control whether on screen keyboard starts when I log on.

    On-Screen Keyboard - Vista Forums

    For magnifier, click on the gear shaped options button, control whether magnifier starts when I log on.

    Magnifier Starts at Startup - Enable or Disable

    here's a couple screenshots,

    That's in the Ease Of Access Center in your control panel. Search that in your control panle.

    And your computer wont break =)

    You would need a LOT of pop-ups to crash a modern processor...

    Disable ALL startup programs except your security program.

    Similar Problem


    My on screen keyboard is run on startup, and I don't want it to.

    I have gone into the ease of access menu and made sure that the "Use On-Screen Keyboard" box is NOT checked.

    I have run msconfig, nothing there runs osk.exe.

    I have tried using the autoruns program that was suggest in the vista form, again nothing is found that runs osk.exe

    I have confirmed that it is actually osk.exe running by going into the task manager when the On-Screen keyboard is running and found "osk.exe".

    Any advise or suggestions would be helpful.

    Thanks,
      My Computer
