<SOLVED> How to disable Goldendict autostart

[pvaklb]

After installing Goldendict, it autostart everytime I log in. I can't find where to disable that because Goldendict doesn't appear in Settings > Session and Startup. Please help me.

Not sure why but...

some autostart apps don't show in session and startup.
If not checked in startup, you can try killing (use terminal or task-manager) and then resave session.

Thanks J.Jay. But I didn't use the function "Automatically save session on logout". Is there another way to solve this problem?

[pvaklb]

I was not paying attention to the option "Save the session for future logins" (Automatically check after installing the system). I have cleared saved sessions, uncheck the check box and restart OS. After that, the problem's gone.

Althought the problem has been solved, I also want to know a way to check how many programs or services autostarts every booting times in case they don't appear in "Settings > session and startup". Do you have any idea for that?

sorry That logout chech-box I uncheck at 1st reboot/logout after a install.

I also want to know a way to check how many programs or services autostarts every booting times in case they don't appear in "Settings > session and startup".

If your on the Ubuntu based Xfce (or any DE) theirs a handy program called 'BUM' (boot Up manager) that will tell what 'Run-Time' services will run. And their are other run-time editors in repos also.
For other apps it's easy to see whats running with a task-manager and kill process and resave session for future logins.

P.S. their's also a 'boot-benchmark' tool some were talking about when I asked about boot speed of ubuntu vs debian. (I never used thou)
