Faster Vista! [HD] Ep. 16: Disable the Sidebar from Automatic Startup and Close it Permanently
Thursday, December 17, 2009 16:50Posted in category FV Main Episodes, Faster Vista! Series [HD]
Today’s video will show you how to disable the Windows Vista sidebar from automatically starting on Windows Vista startup and closing it permanently. The windows sidebar is a nifty utility for those of you who like to have gadgets on your desktop – if you are like me, however, and have very few resources on your computer system – disabling every little bit you can to get the most out of your system helps. So I opted for removing my sidebar, and if you find yourself not using it’s features, you may want to also – this video will show you how.

your right, the sidebar does use loads of resources, over 50MB on my 3 year old laptop. I like it for performance monitoring, currency conversion, wifi radar. handy calculator. Up until recently, i always had it on startup, but it does add 30 seconds to the boot time maybe more. I just have it on manual start now. I have 2GB RAM and I never use more than 1,5GB.
