How to prevent Microsoft Lync adding startup entry in Windows?
Microsoft lync makes my laptop boot very slowly and if I disable it from startup, the laptop boots fine and quick. However the issue is, if I start lync again, it puts an entry to startup. So I end up disabling again and again before every boot. I try to put my laptop into sleep only as much possible, however there are many times I need to start up. So, please suggest how to do any of the following?
- How to remove a program from start up, programatically or a windows setting?
- How to disable Microsoft lync to stop putting an entry into startup?
Turn off logging in your Lync client. The logging functionality is what is causing the startup delay, not the client itself. Only use logging during diagnostics.
You can also configure Lync so that it doesn't start up with Windows. On the sign-in screen, click the configure gear and choose Tools -> Options. Select Personal and un-check "Automatically start Lync when I log on to Windows"
