Glary Utilities LIKES distorts the true popularity of Startup Delayer Glary is a suite of a squillion "progs" and cannot be compared against Startup Delayer

Glary "Likes" is 2 ... ... a more honest comparison with Startup Delayer

Method 1: Copy all the startup item's target path and its additional command to a text. If I need restoring them, creating startup items and filling the paths one by one.

Method 2: Create shortcuts for each startup item. If I need restoring them, drag and drop into the Startup Delayer window. It's better to double click the added items therefore Startup Delayer can find the target apps. But you still need adding addtional command yourself.

I'd still rather use this program because it's specifically designed for what it does, rather than one big lump of stuff that I may or may not use. I also like the user interface of this program better, as it allows more precise control rather than a dropdown menu. You can also drag-drop right from the time line interface.

I like and recommend Startup Delayer, but with Glary Utilities you also have included a good startup delay function.

@ em4020 I dont like "suites" of tools (eg, "Glary Utilities") in one app. They just add bloat. It is years since I tweaked startup ... I prefer dedicated specialty apps like "Startup Delayer"

What is Startup Delayer?

Startup Delayer is a Windows startup manager that lets you delay applications and control the order in which they launch when you sign in. Spreading out startup activity helps reduce the number of applications competing for resources at once.
