Review startup applications on a device

You can review and manage applications that run automatically when the device starts. Viewing startup applications helps you troubleshoot performance issues directly from the N-central interface. The amount of information available depends on the version of Windows.

The Startup Applications feature in the Direct Support interface lets you enable or disable individual or multiple applications.

This feature is only available for managed Windows devices with N-able N-central agents installed.
