Eliminating MSCONFIG Warning at Next Boot Up

By default, if you make any changes to your startup with the MSCONFIG utility,

an warning is displayed on the next bootup.

If you use this utility a lot and would like to eliminate that from happening

  1. Create a registry text file (e.g. file_name.reg) with the contents:

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"MSConfig"=-

  1. Create a shortcut on the desktop
  2. Enter in:

regedit /s file_name.reg

  1. Give it a title that make sense to you
  2. When you click on the icon, the specific registry value will be deleted and you won't be prompted next time you boot.
