Contrary to some published reports, Bootvis.exe cannot reduce or alter a system's boot or resume performance. The boot optimization routines invoked by Bootvis.exe are built into Windows XP. These routines run automatically at pre-determined times as part of the normal operation of the operating system. The Bootvis.exe tool is no longer available from this site.

I came across something in my registry that I do not understand: a folder after the Run folder called Run-. Its key name is HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run- Would you happen to know whether that is a legitimate folder? THANKS! Your site is very helpful.

Would you happen to know whether that is a legitimate folder? THANKS!
