Multiple apps open when I start my MacBook Pro

When I start my Mac, multiple apps open such as Word, Whatsapp, and Powerpoint... How can I stop them?

Command Q quits the App, do not quit apps using the red pill button, that will close the window only.

When you shut down select/de-select reopen running application.

You can see all running apps with e HUD (heads up display) Command Tab

Verify you have not added them to Log-in Items: >System Preferences/Settings
