Hi Mrarnold,
For cleaning recently open programs or items right click the start menu orb then choose properties.
Untick both entries under privacy and click apply then OK.
To re-enable follow the above steps and tick both items, click apply then OK.

For further cleaning of possible obsolete entries most of your system cleaning programs (To many to list) will cover this.
Kind regards.

I have used with no issues AutoRuns.
You can disable / enable startup and remove them. (requires Admin access - run as Admin).

Why not use CCleaner, it has the ability to just Disable the entry for windows, Internet Explorer and some Scheduled Tasks. You can allways revert the changes easily...
