Disable Webgility Desktop Extension from Startup

Overview:

Discover how to deactivate the Webgility Desktop Extension from the computer's startup programs for Webgility Online.

Reason:

This is usually required when you do not want any application (in this case, the Webgility Desktop Extension) to start up automatically on a Windows machine.

Methods to perform this operation:

  • Task Manager:

    • Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open Task Manager.

    • Go to the "Startup" tab.

    • Right-click on the application you want to disable and select "Disable."

  • System Configuration (msconfig):

    • Press Win + R to open the Run dialog.

    • Type msconfig and press Enter.

    • Go to the "Startup" tab and open Task Manager.

    • Right-click on the application you want to disable and select "Disable.โ€

  • Task Scheduler:

    • Press Win + R to open the Run dialog.

    • Type taskschd.msc and press Enter.

    • In the Task Scheduler, navigate to "Task Scheduler Library" on the left.

    • Find and select the task associated with the application.

    • In the right pane, click "Disable" under "Actions" or simply right-click and choose "Disable."

  • Startup Folder:

    • Open the Startup folder by pressing Win + R, typing shell: startup, and pressing Enter.

    • Right-click on the shortcut or executable of the application and select "Delete" or "Cut" to move it out of the Startup folder.

Note: Choose the method most convenient for you or that aligns with your preferences. Keep in mind that disabling an application from startup doesn't uninstall the application; it just prevents it from launching automatically when the computer starts. If you need the application in the future, you can still launch it manually.

If you still need any further assistance, please contact the support team.
