I was trying to improve my computer speed and was advised to use Autoruns for windows v8.54 which allows you to modify your startup menu. I found it too confusing and did not use. Now I am trying to use my selective startup in MSCONFIG and everytime I try to change the startup programs, I am getting an error message that states: An access error was returned while attempting to change a service. You may need to log on using an Administrator account to make the change.

I am the only administrator on the computer. Not sure how to fix this problem.

well you are logging into Windows with a user that Donnt have administrative Permissions,all you have to do is to log-in throw your Computer Adminstrator User

Did you uninstall Autoruns for windows v8.54 ?

Are you trying to make these changes via the startup tab or service tab?
Use the Service tab only for informational purposes

I cant find the autoruns program in my startup or in add and remove programs to get rid of it.

 

[Geekgirl]

Is it listed in C:\Program Files?

 

[raymanu]

I did a system restore and searched and removed files and no longer getting error. Thanks
