If you’re like most people, you probably don’t even know that Microsoft Outlook opens automatically when you sign in to your computer. And if you’re like most people, you don’t really care. But if you’re like some people with MSN Messenger, this automatic opening can be a real annoyance. There are a few ways to stop Outlook from opening automatically when you sign in to your computer. The easiest way is to go to the “Start” menu and select “Programs” then “Outlook.” In the “Outlook” window, click on the “File” tab and under “Open With,” select “No Program.” This will tell Outlook not to open with your default program, which is usually Microsoft Outlook. If that doesn’t work, another option is to go to the “Start” menu and select “Settings” then under the heading of “General,” click on the button that says “Advanced Settings.” In the Advanced Settings window, under the heading of “Automatic Login,” uncheck the box next to “[Microsoft] Outlook.” This will tell Outlook not to open automatically when you sign in. If none of these solutions work for you, there’s always the option of using a different email program altogether. There are plenty of free email programs available online that will work just as well as Microsoft Outlook. ..
