Spotify is opening on startup. I have never had it set to auto start.
I am using Windows 10.
I have already gone to Edit > Preferences > [Show Advanced Settings] > Startup and Window Behavior > Open Spotify automatically after you log into the computer > No.
I have checked this, turned the computer off and back on, and checked again. Spotify is still opening on startup.
Thank you in advance.
Solved! Go to Solution.
In Advanced Settings, under Startup and Windows Behavior, turn off or diable "Allow Spotify to be opened from the web". Reboot to check.

Thank you 🙂
