These aren't free.

Live Search is another good alternative. I use Live Search instead of Google Maps.

My advice...use it when reqd...then make sure it is not idling away in startup folder.

hope that helps.

I also use AmazeGPS and like it quite a lot, but I do not know what you are talking about it loading at startup. I do not and never have had a link in my startup folder that loads AmazeGPS at startup. I just used it for a 300 mile trip and it worked quite well. I hade problems with maps not getting downloaded in a few areas, but otherwise, it stayed right on track. Even in 3D mode.

I wondered about that myself, it has never loaded at startup in my system either.

I mean...using FILE EXPLORE ...go to windows/startup folder and check....most of the times after a reboot, it sits there...and I just delete it. It doesnt show on the system tray tho.

I found the same in my startup folder after I installed the app. I deleted the shortcut and haven't seen in back since.
