How to stop "myHP" from loading at startup? I don't want to delete it. I can open it from the start menu,but in msconfig i can see it is always running. I disabled "myHP tray..." That is in the startup, but that is just the tray thing.

 

I cant find where it auto starts.

MyHP is like, so many other apps these days, an MS Store App -- which means it won't show up in the usual places that other apps appear.  This means you won't see it in Control Panel. I have the RealTek Audio Console store app and it does not show up in Control Panel.

 

If you go into Settings --> Apps, you MIGHT be able to find it, and if it is there, there might be some options to either uninstall it or disable it.

it is not in apps. now it might be called something different.  I looked in msconfig services and tsk mgt processes. It's got to be somewhere, but it could be called something else. HP display center has setting in the app, once opened to turn off auto start and I can also see it in msconfig. But myhp I dont see. Hp support asst I turned off auto start. But myhp is only listed in tsk mgr as system tray and I have that disabled. Where is it starting? What is it called? Do they hide this on purpose?

I just bought my HP TE01-4000 and I disabled "myHP System Tray" in task manager startup apps. That stops the tray image from loading, but myHP is still loading on startup. In task manager is myHP and right now it is using 9.4MB of system memory. Below it is the "HP.Contex.Aware.exe" task. The other day I saw 3 tasks below it. I see neither myHP or HP.Contex.Aware.exe in msconfig. So, how do I turn off myHP?

I don't use it so I don't know -- if you do a Google search on disable MS Store apps, it might have some other ways you can disable the apps -- but I found them in Apps.
