I went to "MSCONFIG" and a program that needs to be there to operate properly, is not there. I don't see a way to add a program.

I went to services.msc. And the program is listed as STARTED and under startup item, it says AUTOMATIC.

So how do I get it into "MSCONFIG" on the startup menu ??

go to C:/ the search start menu, then wait for a folder Icon to pop up, while waiting make and/or copy a shortcut of the program and then when you see the start menu folder open it then programs (a folder in it) then start-up, paste the short-cut

    'misplaced' I think may be a better word?

    (I keep on meaning to update the site - but spend too much time having fun solving WGA problems, as a rule)

    @Wagy - your actual join date was 29 Aug, rather than the 14th.

    Misplaced is a better choice.

    My web site is only partially complete for a similar reason.
