How to stop steam on startup?

[RendeR]

I've googled the settings on steam software and windows 10 and how to stop it from starting up. Both of those have been done. I also used CCleaner to try to see if it was in the startup there but it was wasn't (meaning the Windows 10 startup was correct)

None of that matters as steam is still in my startup tray at the bottom right every single time I log into my computer. What is else is there that can stop it without uninstalling?

Wherever it was gotten from is complete trash. None of it is accurate.

The startup programs are in the Task Manager in the Startup Tab.
There's several ways to open task manager:

So smug and then you just post something he already posted he did two posts before you.

If you turn it off via the Startup Apps interface, it's an absolute termination of the app where no other program can interfere and it will remain off. The task manager outlines the same information but any changes made through there can be overwritten by programs and Windows updates.

False. Again. I don't mean offense but when someone shares incorrect / inaccurate information it needs to be corrected. I'm not trying to offend in any way, trying to educate.

If what you're referring to as the "interface" is the options window that appears when you open start menu and type Startup that loads AFTER windows and the desktop GUI and file explorer and everything else starts. Task manager is active before all that stuff is active.
Task manager is first.

If used to be msconfig which is a backend control for boot.ini but they've moved it to Task Manager. Not the options screen in file explorer.

The task manager is live whereas the app interface is a configuration basis. If you want to make a fixed change then it's best to use the hard-settings. I've made several on the fly changes through the task manager some only stick if they are done through system settings.

If OP goes through this way then problem solved.

Where did you get your knowledge of computers? A crackerjack box?

As per usual, you have to resort to trolling when your beat. I don't know why in every thread you have to over-complicate and attention seek in an attempt to provide a flamboyant and needless answer.

The OP here wants to stop Steam on start up and the way to do this is to disable Steam in the Startup Apps screen in System settings. Simple. Making the user go on a wild goose chase is just disrespectful and pointless especially for just your personal validation.

Congratulations you got yourself noticed at least but hey ho, shame it was out of embarrassment only.

You're confusing task manager in general with the specific startup tab.

Nobody has mentioned startup tab. I am referring to the Startup Apps configuration as hard-setting to disable apps on startup. Sure you can still do this in the task manager as mentioned but it's best to do it in the system settings because sometimes the TM settings don't stick especially with 3rd party programs or Windows updates.

A mountain doesn't need to be made out of this molehill on what is one of the simplest and easiest settings to change.

I'm trying to politely tell you that you are inaccurate but you keep digging in deeper.

again, the startup tab in task manager does the exact same thing. You keep saying it doesn't.

I have never once said it doesn't and I even mentioned this here https://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/1/5501694039541314555/#c5501694039557059226
'Sure you can still do this in the task manager as mentioned but it's best to do it in the system settings because sometimes the TM settings don't stick especially with 3rd party programs or Windows updates''

That's pretty shameful trying to brand me a liar to enforce your point. Also how can the right answer be 'inaccurate'?

Pathetic really.

My instructions came from Microsoft. If you want to disable active startup apps then you do in the Startup Apps interface. The task manager only controls programs that are already active so it's daft to ask someone to turn off a program on start up after the device has already started up:lunar2019laughingpig:

I'm sorry but where does it say that it doesn't? I'm saying it's daft to make startup changes AFTER you've made the start up. If the OP is having persistent issues then surely something is overriding the TM settings but if they did it through the Microsoft recommended and common sense settings then it's a fixed configuration change.

I'm still waiting to hear how my correct solution is 'inaccurate'?

[Infected Shogun]

I'm not even going to bother anymore, the inaccurate information was already corrected.

Oh so you're not going to explain how Microsoft's solution to this issue is 'inaccurate' then?

That's a real shame. Would have loved to read your expertise on how Microsoft are wrong and are liars.
