Try this:

1. Wait for "My DELL Downloads" to pop-up..

2. Press Ctrl/Alt/Del and start Task Manager.

3. In the Processes tab, look for a file name called "Toaster.exe *32". Description: "Dell DataSafe Local Backup"

4. Right click the filename.

5. Select "Open File Location" .

6. A new window will open and it should automatically highlight a filename called "Toaster"

7. Locate the filename "ToasterLauncher" which should be somewhere underneath the file "Toaster".

8. You may right click and delete it or rename it as Toaster Launcher. bup to prevent it from launching.
