Hey everyone!
So I have this problem with my Mac; every time I restart it or shut it down and re-open it, it opens some applications. I was wondering how to stop that since I don't need any of them to open up.
Thank you in advance for your help!

Hello and thank you for such a quick reply.
Even when I deselect "Reopen Windows", it does it.
I can not seem to find "Close Windows when quitting an App" in my settings. Could you send me a screenshot please?

I don't have Microsoft Teams but in Spotify, open Spotify preferences, click "show advanced settings", set "Startup and window behavior" to "No".
Make sure these are unchecked when restarting or shutting down.
FWIW, there are some apps set to open on start or restart by default. Spotify being one. You have to change Spotify's preferences in its case.
Hello,
The applications that open for me are, Microsoft Teams and Spotify. Could you show me how to turn the automatic re-opening off please?
Wow! Thank you very much. I solved the Teams one.
You're welcome.
Apps open automatically after Restart
