When getting the latest flash update...somehow Google Chrome was slipped into the deal.

Took me forever to clean the folders...and multiple multiple registry entries. I believe I got it all except I have a couple entries is Task Scheduler

How do I delete these entries ?

Also...what is "HotStart" ??

Thanks....TRinAz

Click on "Task Scheduler Library" in the upper left corner of your screen print.

Right Click on a Task in the list and you should see a "Delete" option.

Click on the HotStart task and look at the Actions tab.
Hopefully you will see a folder/program name and you will know what this task is for.
Maybe there are comments in the General tab / Description that will help?
If you can't tell what the HotStart task does by looking at the task info, post back what you see and hopefully someone here will know.

Hope this helps,
David
