Which autoruns executable to use?

Question

Hello,

The Sysinternals Autoruns utility includes multiple executable files: autoruns.exe, autoruns64.exe, autoruns64a.exe.

Which of these should I be running on a standard install of Windows 10 Pro?

Thank you!

Answer 1

It depends on your processor

autoruns64a.exe is for ARM

On an Intel processor, I use autoruns.exe (32-bit version) and autoruns64.exe (64-bit version)

Answer 2

Microsoft OUGHT to include a simple readme file to note these differences
