Discord autostart not possible to deactivate

rennmaus

Hello,

Sorry. My english is not so good. I can't deactivate Discord autostart. I have the autostart deactivated in the discord settings and in the task manager doesn't show me discord as autostart program. But it starts everytime, i boot my laptop...

Hope its clear what i mean

    I've had this issue for a long time with Discord. I want to assume the best of people, but it really seems like Discord purposely doesn't want to fix this because they want people always running Discord.

    The Autoruns tool shows where things autostart from in Windows -

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/autoruns

    I checked it on my PC (Win11 23H2 10.0.22631 / Discord stable 308210 (396byac) Host 1.0.9152 x64 (49057)) and deleted the registry value causing it to run at Windows startup (run from elevated CMD or PowerShell) -

    reg delete HKLM\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run /v Discord /f

    *** PLEASE DISCORD CAN YOU FIX THIS LONG-STANDING ISSUE? THANKS! ***
