    Hi all,I have my laptop set up so that it opens my most regularly used programs and files on logging in. Pretty standard so far.There is an Excel spreadsheet that I would like to stop opening, and have a different one open. However, I can't seem to work out how I made the original Excel spreadsheet open on startup in the first place... I've checked:- Going to Run Win + R shell:startup the Excel file/shortcut isn't there - including hidden files- Going to Run Win + R shell:common startup the Excel file/shortcut isn't there - including hidden files- Going to Windows > Startup apps no

    :)

    How to stop a txt file from auto opening at login (Not at startup)

    I had a txt file that I set to open during login. I'm most sure that it loaded at login, not startup. I have since deleted the file and cannot find where to stop the error that i get during login ("Can't find txt file"). I'm aware of the startup folder that contains the files that will open during startup, but the txt file in question is not in that folder. That is the startup file that is accessed with "run" and "shell:startup". Thank you.

  3. itunes opening automatically on login

    Hi,

    Thank you for your interest in Windows 10.

    I suggest you to follow the steps below to stop iTunes to open automatically:


    • Open Task Manager.

    • Select the Startup Tab.

    • Right click any app in the Startup menu and select Disable.
    If this does not fix the issue, then this needs to be taken care during installation of iTunes, so you may uninstall iTunes and reinstall it and make sure you check for the startup option during the setup wizard of iTunes.

    Hope this information is helpful. Please do let us know if you need further assistance, we’ll be glad to assist you.

    CSV files used to open in Excel....not now!

    Hi, you say Excel is installed. Does it run normally?

    You can't find Excel in (an unspecified) list of applications. I don't know which list that is for sure.

    For example, in the list related to:
    - rt click a file. Open With
    - this list:

    - some other list...

    If Excel does not appear in the above, I suggest you repair your office installation.

    Maybe the above gives you some ideas. Otherwise please post a screenshot of where you think you should see it but don't. Thanks.
