Anything similar to these kinds of folders should not be deleted/disabled or else you’re screwed.Īt the same time, do not remove kext files, since they are kernel extensions that usually load at startup and they are found in the file “System/Library/Extensions”. So, we suggest you to keep your hands off folders like “/System/Library/LuanchDaemons” or “/System/Library/LaunchAgents”. However, you don’t need to delete all the applications, files and folders from there, because there is a high possibility that your Mac OS X will not be able to boot anymore. In order to stop one of those applications/folders/files you will just need to uncheck the box thats on the left side of them. After that, click on “Login Items” and you will see a list of applications, folders and files that open when you startup your Mac OS X. So, how can you make these startup applications stop popping up when your Mac OS X boots?įirst of all, you will need to open up the User and Groups tab that’s found under the System Preferences panel. Usually, if there are a lot of applications in the Startup, then it will take up to 2 minutes for your computer to load (it depends on each computer’s specs), which can be quit annoying for a person who wants to access an information right away.

Anyone who has a computer ran into this problem and there is a way to fix it.

Whenever you boot or reboot your OS X system, you will notice that a number of applications will automatically pop up.
