Media Center keeps auto starting??

In my computer, Window media center is auto start when reboot. It made me sick.
I try so many way but it still auto start
I already try under ways but it still auto start ..

1.Control panel > System > Performance information and tool manage start up program (disable Window media center)

2.msconfig > ??? I can't found window media center in start up tab

3.Disable Windows Media Center Services Open Services (type services.msc into Start Search). Locate all services related to Windows Media Center, such as Windows Media Center Extender Service, Windows Media Center Receiver Service, Windows Media Center Scheduler Service and Windows Media Center Service Launcher, and any other services started with “eh” as command names, then set their Startup Type to Disabled.

Stop Windows Media Center Services from Start Up
Run MSConfig (System Configuration) and go to Startup tab. Uncheck the item entries which has the ehome as path to the command, such as ehTray.exe. This will prevent MCE related services to be startup up. To be safe, you still need to disable WMC services as above.

I try it but it donesn't work


Still auto start when I reboot or boot

Re: Media Center keeps auto starting??

open MSCONFIG and then go to SERVICES tab, and then scroll down the list and find WINDOWS MEDIA CENTER SERVICE LAUNCHER.. . there should be a tick in the service launcher check box, - remove it - and then click apply followed by ok

then restart your computer and see if this works

let me know the outcome mate
