Re: Recover/Restore missing startup programs?



Click Start > Run
Type "%userprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\Startup"
Put the shortcut of the programs that you like to start at boot.

The problem here is not all programs just load like this, some want
special parameters/switches. For those programs , read their help to
know about the parameters.

Recently, I had to fully (or hopefully fully) remove a virus from my
computer recently using Norton. So far, all infected viruses are
gone,
I followed the removal instructions of Symantec, and I never set
System Restore on. But I think it may have deleted some programs
that
were set to load during startup in msconfig? Perhaps through the
registry? Usually, I have a few programs selected to startup on
msconfig like AIM, audigy 2 sound software, etc but now they're all
gone as in there's no checkboxes for them. I look at Task Manager
and
they didn't load. msconfig was essentially empty save for checkboxes
for 2 new programs I had installed. But services like print spooler,
etc remain intact. It's only the programs. Is there any way to
restore or recover already installed programs back into msconfig and
make them load at startup again?
