I have a program, called "Product Server.exe", being launched when I (re)start my Windows-10 computer.

Launching MsConfig brings me to the task manager, where the "Startup" tab shows me something I don't understand:

(I have no idea what that "Program" is about, but I don't dare disabling it. You never know it's needed for something and I do not want to risk making my computer unusable.)

When I check the task scheduler, I don't see the mentioned process, as you can see:

Command Prompt> schtasks /query /V | findstr /I "Product"

(empty line)

As you see: no result.

Edit: added 'wmic' result:
Asking the same (or a similar) question, using wmic, gives the same result:

Command Prompt> wmic Startup list | findstr /I "Product"

(empty line)

So, I'm left with two related questions:

  • How can I know what that "Program" entry in the "Startup" tab of my task manager means?
  • In case that "Program" entry does not correspond with the startup of "Product Server.exe", where can I go for disabling it?

Thanks in advance

Edit2:

Thanks to Daniel B, I now know that the "Program" entry in my task manager is not the cause of the issue: there are more columns in task manager, explaining this, as you can see from this new screenshot:

=> The "Program" entry is about Teams, another program.

Still I have the question: why is "Product Server.exe" started at startup of my computer?
