:Just type rem or ; at the start on that line.

Note to dhm and Keith:

A line in a batch file that starts with a colon is a "label"
and is skipped over when a batch file is executed.
Any other line is fed into the interpreter to be decyphered.

Back in the old days when we had sub-100MHz processors
and were operating from floppies and/or HDDs with 100msec access times
we would "comment out" stuff by starting the line with a double colon.
This gave the fastest batch execution times.


To Tony:

Start; Run; Open: MSCONFIG
General tab
Tick: Selective Startup
Untick: Process AUTOEXEC.BAT  and  Process CONFIG.SYS

No need to delete anything.
