Windows 10 will notify you when an application runs automatically in the background

A few days ago we talked about the early alerts that alerted us to an imminent problem with our computer's hard drive and now Microsoft is back to improving performance with a new system that will warn when applications start automatically when turning on the PC

Windows 10 has always allowed apps to start automatically, which may change from now on. If you have a PC that has tighter specifications, you may not be interested in having certain tools loaded from the start.Microsoft will now notify us of apps that are added to this list

Early Warning System

To the system applications that are already loaded automatically, we add the different tools that we are installing and that are added to a kind of list of apps that start when turning on our PC To prevent this list from growing out of control, Microsoft is working on a new feature.

A new feature that will will prompt users when applications are added to the list of apps that start at every PC and system startup operational. In this way, the user has better knowledge of what is happening in the background and can prevent applications from causing a worse user experience.

There are Microsoft applications that load when we install them, such as Teams, as well as others such as Spotify, Dropbox that repeat the same process and that are added to those that Windows 10 already integrates (OneDrive, Cortana…)

With this feature, users will now see a new prompt appear alerting them when an app is allowed to run in the background at startup by adding itself to the list of startup programs. It will be then when the user can disable it from the programs that start automatically.

Also, when clicking on the notification, the Settings screen opens>avoids having to go to the Task Manager to check which apps are part of the Startup tab. "
