    Thanks, but I figured it out…

     

    Right-click on the Dropbox icon in the taskbar, hover over Options, then uncheck Open at login.

     

    It works!

      Thanks for the screenshot earlmuck

       

      So you'd like to uninstall Dropbox from your computer completely - right?

       

      If that's so, you can follow the steps outlined here.
