Phone Link is taking up 1.6 GB of memory. I would like to either uninstall it or prevent it from loading at startup. I have: Turned it off in Setup / Apps / Startup Disabled it in Phone Link...

If you have already tried disabling Phone Link in the Setup, Apps, and Task Manager settings, but it still loads at startup, you can try the following steps:
Press the Windows key + R to open the Run dialog box.
Type "msconfig" and press Enter to open the System Configuration window.
In the System Configuration window, navigate to the "Startup" tab.
Look for an entry related to Phone Link or any other related application.
Uncheck the box next to the entry to disable it from loading at startup.
Click on Apply and then OK to save the changes.
Restart your computer to see if Phone Link no longer loads at startup.

The only option I find at System Configuration / Startup is "Open Task Manager". As I mentioned in my original post, I had already disabled Phone Link as a startup app in Task Manager.
