Anydesk at startup

Just started at a new company and we have a Dell machine running Windows 7 that boots up then goes directly into an Anydesk login prompt. Anydesk is a remote access app but it doesn't appear to be installed and has no files installed that I can see while
booted to Safe Mode.

There doesn't seem to be any way to quit Anydesk after normal boot. Mouse and keyboard function normally but Windows menus are inaccessible.

Has anyone else experienced and fixed this issue?

Yes, I contacted Anydesk support but they have yet to respond.

Again, the Anydesk application does not appear to be installed or even referenced anywhere on the machine when I boot into Safe Mode.

Anydesk at startup

The behavior of machines at a business can often be controlled by "group policy" configured by the company's IT department. In such cases, it may be difficult or impossible for ordinary users to change that behavior.

However, there are a few things you can check.

Click Start and select "All Programs."

Scroll down and click on the "Startup" folder.

If there is a shortcut to Anydesk there, delete it.





There actually are many more locations that Windows checks for applications to start when a user logs on. The most comprehensive tool for investigating this is Autoruns:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/autoruns

You can either download and install Autoruns or run it directly from the Sysinternals Live link (Sysinternals is part of Microsoft). After the Autoruns scan is complete (indicated in lower left corner), select the "Logon" tab and look for an entry for Anydesk.
Either clear the checkbox at the left end of the line to disable the entry (this can be undone if needed) or delete it (this can not be undone).

If you don't find an entry for Anydesk in the Logon tab, you can select the "Everything" tab and use the Find tool (CTRL+F), but be very cautious about removing entries you don't fully understand. Most changes can be easily reverted if you just clear the
checkbox, but there are a few items that really should not be changed.

 

Can't get GPU-Z to start with Windows 8.1 startup

I'm not sure how to do that. Could you list the steps for a noob?
