How to TURN OFF auto start of OUTLOOK (NEW) on computer?

I have New Outlook running ok. However, when I boot my computer, Outlook 2016 starts also. When I look in Task Manager > Startup, Outlook (2016) is NOT running, so I cannot disable it. If I remove the outlook.pst that it tries to use, Outlook 2016 complains it can't find the file. I cannot find any startup list that says to start Outlook. What causes Outlook 2016 to start?

I answered my own question about why Outlook 2016 starts at boot when it is not in any startup list. I still do not know why it happens, but I was able to stop it from starting automatically. In Windows 10, by going to Settings >> APPS and looking for Office in the App list, I found two entries for MS Office, one for (Office) New Outlook and one for Office 2016. By UNINSTALLING the offending 2016 entry, it no longer starts at boot. I credit information from tenforums in this topic for the APPS information.

I had the same problem but it wasn't just on start up. If I stepped away from the computer for a bit, I would return to 3 or 4 open tabs of Outlook. None of the solutions suggested here worked. I didn't try the registry solution (way above my limited skill set) but I tried all the others without success. I did however notice something in Settings/Apps. My problems began when I was obligated to switch to New Outlook and I saw two Outlook icons in Apps. I uninstalled the old one, restarted my computer and that solved my problem. That was 3 days ago and Outlook hasn't popped up once since then...I hope this helps.

It really isnt there, youve had it install like some other apps and siabled an option to choose autostart or not, and then tell us to trust in microsoft.
