Windows 10: application still auto start even after disabled in task manager

I followed a the tutorial provided in this forum by disabling application auto startup at the task manager, but the application that I disable still tend to auto start after a few minutes and interrupt my task i.e.: windscribe. so is there any way to fully disable an application unless i open the application or the only way to solve it is by uninstalling the applications? thank~

application auto start?

The application normally need to has a setting menu to enable or disable its auto-starting during boot. you could download some task management utility to kill it if you would not like it running.

 

Task Manager Disable Startup Items

I have been doing some research online but unable to find an answer to a question. I have been looking into the methods of disabling auto startup applications within Windows. Before you link articles, I already know about how to disable the auto start programs
in Task Manager under the Start tab (or msconfig pre-Windows10) or how you can delete the registry key in the HKLM:Run folder in regedit or even stopping the application services methods.

The question that formed during my research is where is the settings stored when you disable an startup app from within Task Manager under the Start tab? If you go to the HKLM:Run folder in regedit you can clearly see that the run reg key for that app is
still present but somehow the app still does not auto start. Is there a config file stored somewhere?

 

auto open/run application

Hi,



Some programs add themselves to the list of programs that will automatically start after booting up your computer. We can disable it, and here are the steps on how to do it:

• Right-click on the Start button.
• Select Task Manager.
• Click the Startup tab, and look for the program that you want to stop from
  opening automatically .
• Choose the program/app, and select Disable.

Let us know how it goes.
