    SO far quite a nice little program that Saluto. No major issues, just one minor quibble that sometimes your wallpaper is shut-off while booting with Saluto but comes right back when finished booting. Other than that, for the average Joe Saluto is great if you want to know what programs are slowing down your boot times, and even gives you a boot times history.

    Hi,

    Another alternative that measures individual loadtimes of programs/services etc. is Soluto. Quite a decent little program.

    Regards,

    Apparently, their website is beta also, because each time I click the download button, it just reloads the page.
    try this link and i have uploaded it for you in the zipfile:) Thank You | Soluto
    Thanks, but I guess I won't be able to use it, because while it was installing, my firewall popped a warning saying that it had blocked the program from modifying some critical registry key. That is unusual in that the windows of that type that it pops usually ask whether to permit it or not...this one didn't, it just slammed the door on it.

    The first time that I tried to open it, it froze the system, requiring a forced restart. The next time that I tried it, the firewall popped the same warning as before, but Soluto appeared to have continued to open, yet when I went to the system tray for access, left clicking did nothing, and right clicking opened a context menu that was inoperative.

    I guess that, like some others have said, I will have to wait until it is out of beta.

    Brian if you could answer a question about Winpatrol I'd be thankful.

    I gave the free program a try for the delay program which is nice but the programs I delayed all gave me double icons in the system tray? Have you had this happen before, I seen that sometimes Scotty will have double icons but not the actual program.

    I tried emailing Bill to see if this is an issue and never heard back from him, nice support

    Saluto does not do this.

    sorry for late reply no i have not experienced this problem. run this program Autoruns for Windows v10.06
    By Mark Russinovich and Bryce Cogswell
    here is the link >>> Autoruns for Windows
    and here is the download link >>> http://download.sysinternals.com/Files/Autoruns.zip
    and you will be able to see if there are double start up entries etc.

    This utility, which has the most comprehensive knowledge of auto-starting locations of any startup monitor, shows you what programs are configured to run during system bootup or login, and shows you the entries in the order Windows processes them. These programs include ones in your startup folder, Run, RunOnce, and other Registry keys. You can configure Autoruns to show other locations, including Explorer shell extensions, toolbars, browser helper objects, Winlogon notifications, auto-start services, and much more. Autoruns goes way beyond the MSConfig utility bundled with Windows Me and XP.

    Autoruns' Hide Signed Microsoft Entries option helps you to zoom in on third-party auto-starting images that have been added to your system and it has support for looking at the auto-starting images configured for other accounts configured on a system. Also included in the download package is a command-line equivalent that can output in CSV format, Autorunsc.

    You'll probably be surprised at how many executables are launched automatically!

    Just a guess, but it sounds as though the programs with double icons are running double instances of the program. You might install this to check startup entries:
