Re: How do I prevent the EA app from starting with windows

Unfortunately it does not show itself in task manager, nor does it show itself the windows settings startup menu. I was able to disable the startup of the xbox app (As I've got the two linked.) and that fixed it.

Thank you for the help everyone.

    Hi all,

    Actually, now I think about it; the EA app doesn't (or shouldn't) automatically launch itself when you start up your PC. At least, not by default. Now I know that Microsoft has implemented a feature in Windows that 'freezes' all running programs on your machine when you turn it off, so they start again on your next startup/logon of your PC.

    On Windows 10 this is called 'Restart apps', which can be found in Settings > Accounts > Sign-in Options.
