To prevent the Works Portfolio from starting each time you start Windows, follow these steps:

1. If the Works Portfolio is in Docked or Gallery View, click Tasks, and then click Options.
   
   If the Works Portfolio is in Compact View, click the top of the Portfolio box to expand the list of commands on the menu.
   
   
2. Click to remove the check mark next to Start the Works Portfolio every time I start Windows.
   
   
3. Click OK.

Also there are many third party software made for showing the hidden startup files so you can remove the file from there or disable it from getting started automatically.... One of which is CCleaner which helps you to do that... Download it & have a wonderful experience....!
