When Outlook (new) updated it decided that upon turning on and signing in to my computer, that it would open. I cannot for the life of me find the setting to turn this off. APPS SHOULD NOT OPEN UNLESS I CLICK THE ICON.

    I'm trying to solve the same problem and found a setting that affects Outlook (new) email auto-start. Outlook (new) can start, even every hour automatically again and again.

    yes, but before giving the advice did you ever try to do it for this new program?

    This is a rhetorical question, cus if you did, you'd never give such an advice

    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.
