cnice wroteUnlocker assistant.exe and userinit.exe. They both currently say NO when I go back to the startup manager in JV Powetools. I am afraid to change it back to yes (the original setting) since i reinstalled windows and it is running fine. ...
If C:\Program Files\jv16 PowerTools 2009\Backups\_StartupManager contains only the two subdirectories for the two tasks you disabled and a file named MainIndex.dat, it is safe to delete the entire _StartupManager directory with windows explorer.
Then they will say YES when you start the PT Startup Manager.
