in Fing Desktop #1

Every time my computer starts, fing app starts also (Icon in tray). Even when it is disabled.

    Yes, I've checked, fing isn't there. I've also looked in the registry but it's the same.

    @Robin, any idea where else @Jakub can look to see where the desktop is auto starting?

    Thanks @Marc
    @Jakub
    Once the App is disabled from the start-up and disabled from the preferences then it should not automatically boot up. I am investigating on this and I will get back to you with an update. Thanks.
