Prevent Windows Messenger from Starting at Launch

The other day, I noticed that Windows Messenger started launching again when I logged onto my computer at home. Playing around in Group Policy, I found a setting that would prevent it from starting up.

1. Open the Local Group Policy Editor. You can do this by clicking Start -> Run -> type in 'gpedit.msc' -> click OK.
2. Navigate to Local Computer Policy -> Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Windows Components -> Windows Messenger.
3. Right click on the setting that reads 'Do not automatically start Windows Messenger initially' -> Select Properties -> Enabled -> OK.
4. Restart your computer.
