    Hey all,

    So there are two settings actually that can influence this auto-start behaviour of the EA app.

    Windows (10) Settings, this takes priority over the EA app in-app setting:

    When this Windows (10) setting is enabled: if you have the EA app still active and you turn off the PC, despite having the in-app setting turned off, the EA app will start again upon the next sign in.

    When this Windows (10) setting is disabled: only the EA app in-app setting can influence this behaviour.

    EA app in-app setting:

    Hope this helps!

    I don't want this app to keep opening  up.  When I boot up?  EA App.  When I wake up the pc?  EA App.  I've disabled the "auto launch" on start but apparently thats just for looks cause it doesn't matter.  You're going to get the EA app.  

    HOW DO I STOP IT FROM OPENING?

    Same here.  The app randomly starts automatically and the startup toggle option always reverts back to on!

    This option is currently broken. The toggle to 'open the EA app automatically on start up' is contantly switched back on. The other option in the original post 'restart apps' is no longer there. Please fix this.

     I share my pc with other people in my household. They EA app is not supposed to start up when they are on the computer.
