How can I stop Facebook Messenger from opening automatically at startup? I checked Options in the App and "Open at Login" is not checked, but it still opens every time....

Thanks for the suggestion! Nothing listed in the Login Items window...it's a mystery...

Boot into Safe Mode according to Start up your Mac in safe mode - Apple Support and test to see if the problem persists. Reboot normally and test again.
NOTE: Safe Mode boot can take up to nearly twice as long as a normal boot as it's doing the following;
• Verifies your startup disk and attempts to repair directory issues, if needed
• Loads only required kernel extensions (prevents 3rd party kernel/extensions from loading)
• Prevents Startup Items and Login Items from opening automatically
• Disables user-installed fonts
• Deletes font caches, kernel cache, and other system cache files
Look in the System/Users & Groups/Login Items preference pane and make sure Facebook Messenger is not listed. If it is remove it.
