How do i stop spotify autostarting when my computer starts up?

Hi crossfire,

Thanks for posting in the Spotify Community. I was wondering if you've tried opening your Spotify desktop app, going to Preferences -> Show Advanced Settings and then selecting "No" in the menu under "Startup and Window Behavior"? I believe this should prevent Spotify from opening automatically when you log on to your computer.

Let us know if this doesn't work for you, or if you have any other questions.

Have a good day!
