How do I prevent Firefox from automatically launching at computer startu
Recently I've been having a number of problems with tabs not restoring when I launch Firefox. That problem isn't solved and will be addressed in another post.
Somewhere along the way, Firefox began to launch at startup. I don't recall changing anything that would do that. I checked my Windows startup list and it's not listed. Win10, Firefox 57.0.2 (64 bit) Any clues?
Thanks!

In trying to solve other issues, I must have inadvertently dome something that corrected the problem...don't know what. It is now behaving properly, ie, not opening on startup.
Per another thread, I've also solved the other problem I've been having of the previous session not automatically load when FF is launched. Somehow the setting for what FF does on FF startup got changed to show homed page. Resetting to restoring previous tabs and windows did the job.
Thanks!

OK...tried it, but Firefox is not in the startup list. Thanks anyhow!
Go up the Start Menu and look For Startup Folder. Open and see if Firefox is listed there. If so Right Click it and Delete

I do not see an entry for "Startup Folder."
uninstall Firefox. Then Delete the Mozilla Firefox Folders in C:\Program Files and C:\Program Files(x86) Then restart system. Then run Windows Disk Cleanup. (Note: This should be Pinned and run Weekly, If never done below expect 10's of gig's) Then run it again and click the button that says Cleanup System Files. Note: your Firefox Profile is saved. But you should make a back up before you do :
Reinstall with Current Release Firefox 57.0.2 with a Full Version Installer
