Slow Boinc startup app

Hi

Is there a known way to speed up the BOINC startup apps in Windows?
Or entirely circumvent the startup apps.
There should be a way for BOINC to load only as the screen saver starts.

The two have high and medium impact on startup, translating to 5 - 10 minutes delay in startup, and sometimes severe hiccups at start.

Inactivating both makes startup a breeze.
I use Win 10 with intel i7 8th gen.

Yours,
Johan

Here is a link to his original posting ..
https://boinc.berkeley.edu/dev/forum_thread.php?id=14546

The last question posed to him by those try to assist was a question how much memory is on the system in question ?

I had posted that on Win 10 systems with older slower CPU's that I was not seeing start up delays of that length. I questioned did he have a Anti-virus application that was aggressively scanning BOINC at every start up ?
