Login items setting doesn't save

Whenever I reboot my computer, I always get Microsoft Teams starting up upon login. I have been to System Preferences > Users & Groups > Current User > Login Items and removed Microsoft Teams by removing the application from the login items list. I made sure to click the lock to make changes and entered my password.

For some reason the setting always changes back to default after rebooting and I get Microsoft Teams at login again.

How can I make the setting stick?

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 10.15

Once you log into Teams click on the account icon in the top left hand corner. You'll be presented with a series of options. One of them will be settings:

Perhaps you've enabled the "Auto-start application" option?

Good luck.

Try resetting the NVRAM if the change isn't sticking.

Otherwise you may want to look in the LaunchAgents and LauchDaemons folders.

You'll probably find a setting somewhere in teams (Preferences? - I don't have teams, so can't check) which says somthing like open at start up, or open at boot.
