Background App Notifier

Thio's Background App Notifier is a Windows utility that identifies newly registered background services and scheduled tasks configured to run automatically. It addresses startup activity that Windows does not normally report through its standard startup application notifications. On its first execution, the program records a baseline of existing automatic services and scheduled tasks. Subsequent scans compare current entries against that baseline and highlight newly detected items. Users can inspect executable paths, startup settings, task triggers, and detection dates. An optional startup check runs silently when Windows loads and displays an alert only when changes are discovered. The application does not continuously consume background resources or modify detected items. It is available as a portable executable or MSI installer and requires no administrator privileges for standard scans.
