Windows 10: Xbox Game Bar - How to disable auto start & how to exit the app?

So I installed this on my computer to play cross-play with someone on their xbox, and it seems rather unintuitive.

How do I stop it from opening when I turn on my pc? "Xbox App Services" status is Disabled on Start-up, but it still loads on boot, it also doesn't seem to be found on services.msc so I can't turn it off there, and of course I can't see a way to do this in the app's options it's self.



Lastly, surely there is a proper way to close this thing? Right now I have to force close it via task manager
