I find many files in the "start up" menu and wonder why they are there? Can I delete them all?

Hello and thanks for your question.

Yes the files can be deleted, but (you) will need to determine which ones

To delete:

1.Click "start"

2.Click "settings"

3.Click "Taskbar & Start menu

4.Select the "Remove" button

5.Then remove what you want

Use these steps also to (Add) instead of Remove.
