Track Startup Programs with wmic.exe on Windows 8
How to track and maintain startup programs on Windows 8? I want to keep a record of what startup programs are configured on my computer.
✍: FYIcenter.com
If you want to get a list of all startup applications on your Windows 8 system and save it to a file,
you can use the Windows Management Instrumentation Command (wmic.exe) as described in this tutorial:
1. Start a command line window
2. Run the following command.
C:\fyicenter>wmic startup get name,command,location > startup-programs.txt
3. Open startup-programs.txt in Notepad. You see a list of startup programs recorded in the file, as shown in the example below:
Command Location Name OpenOffice.org 3.2.lnk Startup OpenOffice.org 3.2 C:\Users\lili\AppData\Local\Google\Update\1.3.33.7\GoogleUpdateCore.exe HKU\S-1-5-21-86...\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run Google Update C:\PROGRA~1\MCAFEE~1\311~1.599\SSSCHE~1.EXE Common Startup McAfee Security Scan Plus C:\PROGRA~2\MICROS~1\Office10\OSA.EXE -b -l Common Startup Microsoft Office C:\Program Files\DellTPad\Apoint.exe HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run Apoint C:\Program Files\IDT\WDM\sttray64.exe HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run SysTrayApp c:\Program Files\Dell\QuickSet\QuickSet.exe HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run QuickSet wscript.exe //b //nologo "C:\Program Files\Intel\TurboBoost\RunTBGadgetOnce.vbs" HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run IntelTBRunOnce rundll32.exe "C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Bluetooth\btmshell.dll",TrayApp HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run BTMTrayAgent C:\Windows\system32\igfxtray.exe HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run IgfxTray C:\Windows\system32\hkcmd.exe HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run HotKeysCmds C:\Windows\system32\igfxpers.exe HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run Persistence
Keep this file startup-programs.txt in a safe place, so that you can compare it at a later time to see if there are any new startup programs are added in your system.
