Default Windows Explorer pops-up when rebooting.

Everytime I reboot, Windows Explorer pops up. I did not see it listed in
msconfig but did find it listed in autorun.exe and unchecked it. But it
still pops up.

On Explorer, Tools menu, Folder options, View tab, unselect "Restore previous
folder windows at logon".

I looked at the view and it was already unchecked.

Check these Registry keys for entries with paths that contain spaces, but have no quotes.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Run]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Run]

Example:
C:\Program Files\program path\app.exe

Change to:
"C:\Program Files\program path\app.exe"

I am so very pleased that people like you take the time to help others fix
problems.
Your suggestions did the trick.
