#75958 — Chrome keeps opening upon startup

Running 10.10.3, my Google Chrome keeps opening right on startup.  I have 
gone into the setting and there is no setting that tells it to open upon 
startup.  Is there any way to keep this from happening?

Is Chrome your default browser? Maybe you have a webloc file in your 
startup list.

Do not have it as "default", I also use Safari 8.0.6.  Where is the 
startup list?  In system settings?

It's the Login Items tab in the Accounts preference.

This is the same as clicking on "Open at Login" in the Dock. You said 
you checked the settings, which setting did you check?

I found the correct setting, "Open at Login" on the icon.  I was thinking 
about the Settings of Google Chrome itself.

In general, you only see this setting in the application itself when 
it's a background-only application or it works using a menu-bar icon. 
Ordinary applications don't usually provide this option in their 
settings, you just use the Dock setting or the Accounts preference.

Right-click Chrome's Dock icon. Is "Open at login" checked?
