Usually you can change that setting in the settings of the program itself.

If you can't find that setting, you can always use task manager, under the startup tab.

I actually couldn't underclock my 5 year old GPU to make it as slow as a next-gen console.

Some are services and you can configure when services start. Others may have a "run on startup" configuration setting.

 

But why bother? Just because a process is "running" does not mean that it is actually consuming resources.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.

Install Ccleaner and it gives you an easy to use list and you can either disable or delete entries in the startup (under tools>startup). Also some things (like in my case, Hamachi) are not on this list, it does however have a service that starts up, to look at your services, you can check your services and disable any you don't need, you can get to the services through administrative tools or just search for it in Windows.
