Disable auto-start

[FredB]

Only just joined & can't find an answer in FAQs etc. Using YZD in Windows XP, I want to disable auto-start. Answer to an FAQ says "On Windows you can use the Control Panel to change the service to start "manually". Looked in the CP but can't see how to do this. Any advice very welcome. Thanks. FredB

I've worked it out. In the Control Panel you have to click on Administrative Tools. In the resulting window, "services" is the first on a of shortcuts. Opening that brings up the list of services - including YZD - and you can alter the Startup Type from there. There are 3 choices - Automatic/Manual/Disable.

And for future use, I have created a direct shortcut on the Desktop.

I guess you all knew that! Fred
