LibreOffice installation wants to close Firefox?

The simplest method to close these programs, should be to click on
each from the taskbar -
          saving anything which hasn't been ...
         then later they open right back up :wink:
       [mere seconds :wink: ]

       BTW - I don't know what Apple-Mobile is, but ITunes - as well as
other programs which happen to get into the start-up menu - can be removed
by clearing that and/or going into their individual properties/options and
re-setting that aspect -
          when these programs are installed, they'll ask whether you want
short-cuts and where these should be -
         [I always refuse the option to add to the start-up menu ;-)]

Hi :slight_smile:
with iTunes i hunted around for at least an hour in all it's menu's and
there was no option anywhere that let me set it to not start at boot-up.
There was nothing in the equivalent of
"All Programs" - Start menu - Start
I'm sure i could have figured a way to force it but then i remembered how
to kill processes through task-manager so i just did that instead.

Sounds like a cakewalk for the average user...

start --> run --> msconfig --> tab systemstart
depednding on you version it opens your taskmanager (win 8 and 8.1) or you get a list.

some applications (3rd party tools) (having good experience with ccleaner) do provide some more useful information and a better interface.

the apps starting at startup listed there are "hidden" somewhere in the registry. don't ask me where.
