How can I disable Avira from autostart & how can I completely turn it off when it's started?

Hi guys.

I’ve installed Avira Prime just for their Phantom VPN (you can get free 30 days and repeat that process forever). I would like to disable it from system startup cause I’m using it only in certain situations. I’ve tried disabling it from Services (I cannot turn it off from autostart from there) and from Task Mannager (nothing happens when I’m trying to kill process there when it’s already started).

Any ideas how can I do it?

Best regards bross.

the registry also stores autorun entries , look there for a folder for that software

* Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

*Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

* Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

task scheduler could also have some task for them

* computer management - system tools - task scheduler - task scheduler library
