Some one said this only makes the startup unseen but it still loads is that true?
I want to speed up my machine but I have no idea what these abreviations mean so I’m scared to ‘delete’ the short cuts in case I stop a programme I want or need.
I think that we need a digest to clarify the abreviations.
