Was that done in Safe Mode? If so, do one that's in a regular bootup and post.

You may just want to untick that entry from MSConfig and see if it gives you any issues.

It was in normal mode.

It is kinda short though, due to me stopping everything I can.

I think it's just a dead entry, but would do the MSConfig trick mentioned above to be safe. :hello:

We've unchecked it and restarted, will just see how the computer behaves now.
