Dell Support & Dell Support Center Startup Removal
I want to remove both Dell Support and Dell Support Center from my "msconfig" Startup area, and get them out of my Task Bar.
I found the following "processes" (?) in my Startup:
dsca
DSagnt
sprtcmd (which delays shutdown!)
Which ones are safe to remove from the Startup?
Then I will attempt to uninstall the Dell Support and dell Support Center programs.
Thanks for assistance.

I tried taking the 'Sprtcmd exe' out of the startup using Msconfig. Doesn't work. It will be back the next time you start up. That told me that it was also somewhere else. Looking in the registry one can see a section involving the startup of the dell center...Dell Support Center, First Run folder....all values are listed as 'True'. Wonder what would happen if one changed them to 'false' ? Haven't tried it yet.
Don't mind having the dell center around, just do not like unnecessary stuff starting up at startup.
