    I have removed some Programs and their are some left over items remaining in MSConfig.
    I am running windows 7 64bit how can I remove these.
    They are Adobe Acrobat ( It's their two times) and Adobe ARM
    I uninstalled them programs, and adobe left them in my msconfig

    Hi John. Download and run Autoruns. After you have extracted the folder run the autoruns.exe program.

    After you run the program click on the Logon Tab. Locate any entries that you wish to remove, highlight them and click the Delete button at the top of the window. When you are finished close the program and reboot the computer for the changes to take effect.

    After thats done go back into Msconfig and those Adobe entries should be removed.

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run. Remember to backup your registry first.

    Thanks it worked I have now removed all adobe entries of Msconfig alone with all adobe products. I tryed to go to uTube, and watch that video but it keep stating I had to update my flsh player which I did.
    after I updated it to latest version of adobe flash player UTube keep promping me to update. Other places I visited keep telling me to update flash player. I also did Register search and deleted anything that came up with adobe in it.
    Now I am going to use Acronis and make a image back up.
    Thanks again
