Qbittorrent keeps opening on startup

Hi,
I installed Qbittorrent on my system and it always opens immediately after the system boots. There is no option in the app’s settings to turn it off. I also checked the config file and autostart is turned off there. Here’s how it looks:

[AddNewTorrentDialog]
DialogSize=@Size(900 696)
DownloadPathHistory=
Enabled=true
RememberLastSavePath=false
SavePathHistory=/home/akip/Downloads
TopLevel=true

[Application]
FileLogger\Age=1
FileLogger\AgeType=1
FileLogger\Backup=true
FileLogger\DeleteOld=true
FileLogger\Enabled=true
FileLogger\MaxSizeBytes=66560
FileLogger\Path=/home/akip/.local/share/qBittorrent/logs

[AutoRun]
enabled=false
program=

I read that it’s possible that the session settings might be turning it on but how can I disable it? I use KDE Plasma

Thanks in advance

In system settings check:

  • Startup and Shutdown->Autostart
  • Startup and Shutdown->Desktop Session

If it isn’t in autostart and desktop session is set to “Restore last session”, make sure you are actually exiting the application.

When you close the Qbittorrent window it minimizes to the tray so it is possible that is why it keeps opening.

In the worst case, you can add it to “Don’t restore these applications”.

I added qbittorrent to “don’t restore” and it doesn’t turn on automatically anymore, thanks
