1) Disable Startup Apps Using Windows Settings

Launch the Windows Settings by clicking on the Windows logokey at the bottom and clicking on the Settings gear icon.
Now click on the Apps from the list, scroll down to the bottom, and click on Startup.

Here, you can see a list of all the apps that can start up automatically. The toggle switch to the right side indicates if the app is turned On or turned Off at Windows startup.

Choose the apps that you don’t want Windows to run at the startup automatically, turn Off the switch to the right.

Just below the switch, you can see an impact indicator for the apps. There are a total of four different impact indicators – No impact, Low impact, Medium impact, and High impact. These indicators measure the impact of the apps on the system when it runs on the startup.

The higher the impact indicator, the longer an app takes to load, thereby increasing the time it takes for Windows to completely start. If the indicator for an app says High impact, that means this app is slowing down the system by running at the startup, you can disable it right away unless you are sure that it is required to run at the startup.
