[Bug] Respect Windows' autostart disable feature #387

Open simkoG opened 1 month ago

simkoG commented 1 month ago

Describe the bug Winomail does not respect Windows' autostart disable feature. Despite disabling the app from starting via Task Manager, it continues to launch upon logging into my Windows machine.

  1. Open Task Manager.
  2. Go to the "Startup" tab.
  3. Disable Winomail from autostart.
  4. Restart the machine and log in.

Expected behavior The app should not start when its status is set to "Disabled" in the Task Manager's "Startup apps" section.

This is technically not possible. Wino doesn't have any script or code that registers itself to startup other than the official API StartupTask

I see you have startup behavior as 'Disabled', which means "Don't run Wino Mail when Windows starts". However, when you launch Wino manually, it will keep running on the system tray because you have your close behavior set to 'minimize to system tray'

This is where wino actually sets startup behavior in windows. And disabling it from settings should work fine. image
