Try disabling Dell Datasafe Online on Windows startup, (do not delete the startup entry)

 

Click Start > Run > type in msconfig then press Enter

 

Click on Startup tab & uncheck Dell Datasafe Online then click OK & reboot computer

 

If the problem startup message has been removed then culprit is Dell Datasafe Online

Hi again Peter

 

Good to hear you found the culprit  :emotion-21::emotion-5:

 

Albeit a common fix to identify suspect problem causing Windows startup programs, long term, its not good practice to leave it/them permanently startup disabled

 

I have seen lots of Dell Datasafe Online problems being reported in these Forums, but can’t comment further since I don’t have nor ever used it?

 

It’s recommended that if you want & need a particular problem causing program then need to investigate fix/repair or try an updated version (if available)?

Alternatively if not wanted/used – then remove the program using Add/Remove

 

There's a “sticky” post by Dell Jesse L in Productivity Software Forum, click here but refers to issues after upgrading to Windows 7??
