Optimize Windows startup by adding delays to specific applications. Control when each program launches, reduce boot time, and prevent system slowdown. Free tool for Windows 10/11.
Your Windows PC takes forever to boot. Too many programs launch at startup, overloading your system and slowing everything down. You can't just disable them – you still need them, just not all at once.
This tool lets you add delays to startup apps. Each program launches at a set time, so your system boots faster and apps open smoothly without crashing or slowing each other down.

- Manages startup list – view all programs that launch at boot.
- Enable/Disable delays – turn delays on or off for each app.
- Set custom order – choose which apps launch first, middle, last.
- Preserve system stability – delays reduce startup conflicts and crashes.
- Simple interface – no command line, no complicated registry editing.
