Windows 10: Missing Startup Apps and Slow Startup Speed

I'm hoping that someone here may be able to help or point me in the right direction. I noticed a couple of months ago that my list of startup apps has gone completely blank, and around the same time, I also noticed that my computer takes a very long time to become usable after startup it's even worse after a restart. I don't know if these two things are related, but they're both of concern to me. I guess the bigger issue right now is not being able to see the startup items, as the answer to the slowness is probably there. Is there a way to get them back? Thanks in advance.

Slow Startup

Does anybody know why I am having really slow system startups? I don't have extra startup programs than I use to have. The only thing that I think it could be is my antivirus program. I use AVG now since I reformated 2 days ago..and every since then, I have a really slow startup..I don't know if that is the reason..Does anybody have any suggestions, on how to speed my startup? I use to be able to be on my desktop screen in like 35-40 seconds at most. And now it is way over a minute. Any help would be gr8.

Adding programs to startup with Windows 7?

You could add entries to the registry to launch the apps on startup, but it's easier to just add them to the startup foler as Newt suggested.

 

Slow Startup

could ip config possibly slow down startup?
i use route too, but seems that fixed or assigned ip makes no difference
