JSI Tip 4221. How do I use MSConfig in Windows 2000?


Microsoft did NOT include MSConfig in Windows 2000.

In tip 2620, I introduced StartUpCPL as a freeware alternative.

Microsoft did include MSConfig in Windows XP.

You can run MSConfig in Windows 2000 by using the Windows XP version. Copy the following files to a folder in your path:

%SystemRoot%\PCHEALTH\HELPCTR\Binaries\msconfig.exe
%SystemRoot%\Help\msconfig.chm
