Can anyone suggest me how to STOP Google Chrome from automatic launch during Windows 10 STARTUP ?

This problem started after few regular boots post updating Windows 10 to Build 1709 (OS build 16299.64) & Chrome to latest version(Version 62.0.3202.94 (Official Build) (64-bit)). I've already checked the Startup tab from the taskbar , which I earlier Disabled for chrome from startup. But it is annoying every time I boot.

    I think I found it!  I went to Chrome settings, chose Advanced Options, and close to the bottom I found under System: Continue running background apps when Google Chrome is closed. 

    This was on.  I turned it off. 

    I also re-entered the specific pages to open on start up, just to be clear, in the normal settings options.

    Everything worked as it should have when I brought up my system twice this morning.

    I only had 2 startup items enabled - one was carbonite.  I disabled the other.  Chrome still started up with whatever tabs were open the day before when I closed it.

    Does chrome open to a particular page?

    It may not be Chrome that you are looking for. Something else could be called, and the default program that opens happens to be Chrome.

    Can you disable startup items from the Task Manager, and go through a process of elimination.
