Basic necessity 1: You need to own a Mac.

Step 1: Open up the User and Groups .

There is pane under System Preferences called 'Users and Groups'. Click on the 'Login Items' tab in this 'Users and Groups' pane.

Step 2: Uncheck or Subtract.

Listen, here will be a list of apps and files and folders that open at start up time. Most of them will be checked at the 'Open at login' checkbox. Therefore, if you need to stop them from opening when you start up your Mac, simply uncheck them at the checkbox.

You can also manually delete them from the list by clicking on the minus sign (-) button.

Step 3: Check for Start Up Items. (and then DELETE THEM, obviously)

Go to the Systems folder. Then go to Library. There will be a folder called 'Start Up Items' here. Go to this folder.

This folder basically holds a list of programs that open up at start up. Every time. If any item is undesirable, delete it from this folder.

Step 4: Keep your hands off!

Some things are integral to the working of your computer. Even start ups. So you cannot blindly go about deleting all of them. Keep your hands off of some:

  • /System/Library/LaunchDaemons
  • /System/Library/LaunchAgents

Any components in these two folders are essential for the workings of your Mac. So stay clear of these folders when you are on your start up program sabotage spree!

Step 5: Kext-ing till you die.

Kexts or kernel extensions are a real thing. It is okay if you have never heard of them before [neither had I before researching for this article]. Kexts or kernel extensions usually load at start up. They can be found in the file '/System/Library/Extensions and load at start up'.

They give low-level components such as processing audio and including backing for peripherals. Most kexts on your Mac are part of OS X.

If you absolutely need to remove a kext, the safest and most harmless way to remove a third-party kext is to run an uninstaller that has been provided by the developer.
