Hi,

I've recently added the blackberry software, but everytime I turn computer on it opens up, which can slow the start up. How can I stop this from starting up when starting up computer?

Welcome to Geeks To Go!

The Blackberry software installation has most likely added a component to your 'Startup' items which all start with Windows. This behaviour is all too common these days but luckily it's easy to take control of the situation. Download 'Ccleaner' from here (it's free): http://www.piriform....leaner/download

Install it and open it.

Click "Tools" then click "Startup"

From the list, look for a line with 'Blackberry' in it.

Right-click that line and choose "Disable"

Now restart Windows.
