I want to stop JRM from launching on boot. I'm on v.10. Does it have a setting to set for it to start up on bootup?
I have checked all users Startup folders; I have looked at MSCONFIG; and I have looked in the Registry at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINe/Software/Microsoft/Windows/Local Version/Run. It's not in any of those places. I cannot find a setting in JRM to set that.
Yet, it launches when I boot up.
Where am I forgetting to look?

Media Server has such a setting, but not MC10. Media Scheduler is started automatically if you've told MC to re-acquire file types (under options/file associations).

I'm on v 10.0.161. I have not upgraded to 1.73,as it seems to disable my FLAC file types from playing.
I see no option for reqcquire file types. I looked through other menus for that setting too, and do not find it.

Control Of Files:
Tools>Options>File Associations: checkbox at bottom of window
To turn Media Scheduler on/off:
Tools>Option>General: checkbox middle of window

Thanks for the info, but the media scheduler is off, and the checkbox at the bottom of the file associations is not checked. That's how I understand the above statement. So this must not be what is autolaunching JRM.

No other suggestions?

Get hold of Startup Control Panel

It lets you control start up applications.

Yes, that's good. Or, you could get Spybot: Search & Destroy. Run it in advance mode and one of the tools in the program lets you view all start-up/auto-launch entries -- and then you can easily turn off or delete whatever you want. Plus, of course, you get all the usual Spybot benefits. And it's free, of course: Available on Download.com. I use it all the time to get rid of the Quicktime autolauncher that always seems to be reinstalling itself.

Thanks. I'll check out these tools.
