Application autostarts although its not in autostart

Hi there,

I got this application autostarting every time I start my Macbook:


The problem is it isn't one of my Autostart programs and I don't know where it is started from.

Here is a screenshot of the Login items:




Any advice would be great to find out where this application is started from :)

Thank you all for your tips, the problems seems to be caused by Google Drive. Every time Drive is starting, it is asking for permissions to add its extension, although it is already enabled.

The only solution would be to wait for a fix by Google :(


Since it is me and you in this thread— your welcome lv042



OneDrive has certainly been known to be problematic on Mac.
