Editorial description
Unhook Startup is a startup manager for Windows 10 and 11. Lists Run keys and Startup folder entries with a disable switch and a backup export. This catalog page covers the current 1.2.4 installer we measured at 4.5 MB, including the SHA-256 published with the release.
In daily use it lets you disable autostart items and export the previous state as JSON. We noted Microsoft-signed services are marked and harder to disable. Setup does not bundle extra toolbars. Disabling security software is blocked.
