Delay Startup Programs to Boot Windows Faster

The more you delay a program from starting up, the longer it takes to boot right? Here's a theory on how delaying programs from starting up allows Windows to boot faster. When Windows boots, it loads a lot of programs and practically everything at the same time. For example, your antivirus, firewall, office quickstart bar, mouse manager, messenger and so on. I've seen a lot of computer that has a long list of icons on their traybar. Loading everything at the same time puts a high overwork on the hard disk (it has to read simultaneously from totally different parts of the disk) and this shoots up your RAM and CPU usage (launching a new program is often resources intensive).

So now you understand why delaying programs from starting up can help you boot in Windows faster "IF" you have a lot of programs to load during startup. Like me, I remove anything that is unnecessary to free up my memory and also to load Windows faster. So this method might work for other people but certainly not me.

JokerSoft StartupDelayer is a FREEWARE which enables you to set a delay time between the launch of every program to avoid overloading the system. You can choose how the program windows will appear (maximize, minimize, hidden, normal) and set a different priority to the program (low, below normal, normal, above normal, high, realtime).
