ANSWERED How do I prevent Evernote startup when Mac launches?

[Dang Ho 0]

Hi all, 

I have the same problem that others voiced already back in 2017:

"whenever I log into the computer Evernote also starts even though I do not have this option checked in preferences. I believe that the length of time it takes for Evernote to load hinders my ability to immediately work. The time that Evernote takes to load when I log on is unreasonable long and I would like to change this. How can I turn off loading when I log in? As I said previously, this option is NOT checked in preferences."

Sadly all  posts evolving around this very topic are closed for further comments, and the promise was that the Evernote Team was going to look into it. Can somebody please clue me if there is a solution? ( The box to lauch on start-up is unchecked! )

I did finally find the answer buried in a post on this subject from a couple of years ago; I just tried it and it did work!  Just read the instructions carefully.

 

"Do the following: Settings > Users & Groups > Login Items > Click the lock at bottom left & input your system password > In your "Login Items" list highlight the Evernote items and click the "-" (minus) sign underneath the list. "

Thank you!!! This finally solved the problem I have been trying to solve for months. It has been such a pain for Evernote to insist on opening at login and then inevitably stall all my other apps. It looks like this worked!  FYI for Mac users, go to System Preferences > Users & Groups...
