Mircosoft Word Launches after Startup in a New Document

Hello,

After the most recent Windows 10 updates (I believe that they were minor security patches) Microsoft Word (through office 365) will greet me with a brand new document open and ready to go immediately after I boot up my Lenovo Ideapad 330-15ARR laptop. I am a college student that uses word a fair amount, but i find this to be rather annoying every time I boot up my laptop. I have gone through Word's settings and windows settings, where I have not found Word Listed as a program that will run at boot. Has anyone had this issue as well and found a fix? 

 

Thanks,

-Tanner

Have you checked task manager startup or windows admin tools services?

Why do you have so much crap enabled in startup??

Also, go look at the windows admin tools.

It would appear that all of my Office apps were updated the same day as the last windows update for my laptop. After having reverted Word back to the prior version and rebooting the laptop, It stopped opening after boot-up. I have now updated Word again and it started opening up again after booting up. I think that I will be contacting Microsoft support about this one!

Or just disable the startup process in windows admin tools........

Do you have it still open before you restart or shutdown your computer?

 

If so you can go to Sign-In option is Settings and toggle some option that has to do with open previously opened apps.
