Windows 10 will warn users of irritating startup apps

Microsoft has added a new feature to Windows 10 which will warn users if a newly-installed app will run at startup, according to a report from Softpedia News.

The functionality has only been included in the latest Windows 10 preview build for Insiders but could come to public versions of the OS at a later stage.

These users will now receive a toast notification on their desktop which informs them when a new app or program has been registered to run when the OS boots up.

I'm actually ok with this. Even with an SSD, startup apps kill my laptop's CPU when there are too many. Unless it's something to do with system, i disabled all startup apps.

Well it does it for MS Teams, so don't see why it won't for Skype.

I wish that I didn't have to manually change the service to have a delayed start-up instead of just having it in start-up that I can set delayed start to apps.
Stuff like Teams and Discord are not critical for start-up if I want to do something, I can survive waiting 5s for it to start after, but if I am in a hurry, I don't want it taking resources when I'm trying to e.g. access a site in FF.
