    How to delete some item from start up menu for windows 10 ?


    Hello every one,


    I use windows 10 64 Bit home edition.


    I found in the startup menu an unknown program named ' program' and there is no publisher name!


    I have disabled the program from task manager but I want to completely delete this program from the startup menu.


    I tried use regedit.exe to delete this item on this path :



    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run


    and this path also


    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run



    and this


    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run


    It doesn’t appear there, even the rest of the items don’t appear completely.



    Where can I find this program and delete it from the startup menu?


    Thanks

    :)

    Vista - Weird error trying to delete Start Menu item

    I'm trying to delete an unneeded folder from the Start Menu. I right-click and then "Explore", navigate to "Programs", select the folder and press delete.

    It won't let me delete the folder! (It is an empty folder.) The error that comes up is:

    The thing is, the folder IS there. I'm sitting here looking at it. Why is Windows telling me it doesn't exist, and more importantly, how can I finally delete this useless empty folder which is cluttering up my Start Menu?

    Vista - Weird error trying to delete Start Menu item

    Hey mate (yes im from australia)

    I had this problem just before and fixed it pretty easily.
    Have to use the good old command prompt and delete from there.
    Windows is just gettin shitter and shitter isnt it. might go back to DOS soon lol

    Steps> CMD in run > go to the folder (start menu folder) > type: DEL (watever the filename is) and if it says from filename put in the shortname eg. 034Michael short would maybe be 034Mich~l or sumthing like that.

    THIS WILL WORK, THIS HAS HAPPEN TO ME 4 TIMES NOW LOL fukin vista!!*Bang Head :banghead:

    Vista - Weird error trying to delete Start Menu item

    It's probably just a registry entry - run registry cleaner. Or, try doing this; Open File Explorer, browse to \Windows\Start Menu and you'll see the icons there. Delete from this folder and that should remove it.

    If the deleted files is stil in Recycle bin, restore it then go back to start menu and delete the file the normal way.

    If you can't find the recycle bin...Right-click on your desktop and choose Personalize,
    click the Change Desktop Icons link in upper left hand corner. In the Desktop Icons Settings window, check the Recycle Bin box and click OK.

    Hope that helps.*Toast :toast:
