Truly stop Dropbox client from starting automatically on Windows 10.
This is happening to me on Windows 10 Pro 64-bit. When I first installed Dropbox 3.14.7 I thought it it was well-behaved, because it offered an option to disabled "Start Dropbox on system startup". B...
To truly prevent Dropbox from changing the autoplay settings (in Windows 10):
- Close Dropbox;
- Open Regedit and go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AutoplayHandlers;
- Search for EVERY key with written "Dropbox autoplay" and replace this with either "MSOpenFolder" or "MSPromptEachTime" depending on your preferences;
- Restart the PC.
Right now it is working for me, but as always YMMV!
Cannot after updating new release dropbox, it don't care previous settings from previous dropbox version, it's still startup automatic. Please use winpatrol and autoruns to delete, i'm sure no problem with dropbox. Today every apps need run with system startup but almost all of them do nothing because modern programing style like that! You will be paid a lot of money to change HDD, Dropbox is one of apps make damaged HDD.
Same problem. Windows 10. Dropbox never requested or installed, not welcome, do not want it to intercept pdf downloads. But cannot stop it. Changed all startup and asssociate settinga to Adobe but DropBox will not go away. It is malware that cannot be removed and DropBox support keeps posting "fixes" that are fake news..
