Anyone that’s used Windows Vista from a new installation will know when I’m talking about when I mention the Welcome Center. This little annoying window will give you instant access to a things such as Windows Anytime Upgrade, Add New Users, Whats New in Windows Vista and much more.
However this is still a very annoying window that you will have to close every time you boot up Windows Vista, It’s something that’s very easy to stop and I’ll explain below, I’ll also explain how to find it again after you have stopped it.
First of all lets banish the Welcome Center:
When you start up Windows Vista you are presented with the Welcome Center Window, Well in that very window if you look in the bottom left corner you will see a check box that says Run at startup. All you have to do is un tick this box and then close Welcome Center.
Secondly (for you crazy little critters) how to get back to the Welcome Center:
Click on Start (Bottom left Vista Logo) and type Welcome into the search bar then click on Welcome Center when you see it in the list.
If you for what ever reason what it to show again on every start up then check the box that says Run at startup.
You will also see near that check box (Welcome Center can be found in Control Panel, System and Maintenance) So if you are having problems with the search function or would just like to find out where it is go take a look.
