Excel opens automatically when I boot and login

[Cromulent]

I have a rather annoying problem where Excel (Office 365) will open whenever I turn on my computer and log into my user account.

Does anyone know of a way to stop this happening? It is just one extra thing I need to close when I start using my computer. I'm running Windows 10 Pro 1803 at the moment.

Check the startup folder https://www.thewindowsclub.com/startup-folder-in-windows-8

See if Excel is in there, if not, it'll be an option within the software to run at startup

I've not got win 10 in front of me but supposedly you can do this too

open task Manager >Click on "More Details" navigate to the Start Up tab and there you will have the programs that will start up automatically when Windows start. Click on Disable and that's it.

Strange it isn't in any of those places, but it seems to have stopped loading at startup now. Not sure I understand why but at least it is no longer doing it.

Thanks for the help though .
