How do I stop Dell DataSafe from loading?
what version of windows are you using?You want to stop it from loading when the machine starts up correct?
I am running vista and yes, I would like the program to stop loading/running whatever it takes to stop it....
click startIn the search box type msconfigThen press enterClick the startup tab at the topClick on the disable all buttonThen click on apply and then okThen restart the computer
I am sorry but this does not really solve the problem. There are some applications I do want to automatically run at startup. Perhaps I was not clear. I am looking for a way to stop just the Dell DataSafe application....
OK I apologize usually people have a lot they don't need or want opening if that is the case on the start up tab look for dell datasafe then uncheck it. Leave anything you do want to load checked. Then click apply and then on ok.
There is no box for the Dell DataSafe application. I can not find anything on the Dell web site that explains how to stop it...
Unfortunately I am unshure of this so I will have to opt out and open this to all experts
Thank you for your honesty....
Hello.I looked into the program a bit, and as far as I can tell it has only 2 real options. It's installed and running, requiring an auto start; or it is un-installed. From what i can see, it was done this way because of it being a backup program.At the same time, it appears to have little to no impact on the system once it's loaded up. In addition, you should be able to disable automatic backups.
I found the answer. I unistalled the program. I went to the Control Panel, then to Program and Features and uninstalled it from there. There were three Dell DataSafe programs I had to unistall. My complaint is Dell should tell you about these program and how to unistall them. Thanks again...
