Stop automatic download on startup

With version 10, how can I stop automatic downloads of emails on startup “Run on system startup” in Settings , general is unchecked.

Thank you, but where is “the application icon”. The [image] link did not show its location. I tried clicking on the icon in the Windows 10 task bar, but that didn’t work.

OK solved. The message was hidden behind other screens.

I spoke too soon when I said problem solved. I assumed that I needed to enable offline mode on start only once. But it now appears I need to do it every day. My practice is to put my PC to sleep every evening without closing eM Client, and open the next morning. But when I do this eM Client downloads all my emails before I have time to check and delete the spam.

Is there any way I can stop this? If not, I think I need to go back the the previous version of the program.

Thinking about it, I can see that it is probably not possible to do what I ask. I have to come out of offline mode on startup every day in order to download emails, so it seems necessary to go through the offline procedure every day.

So, is it possible to revert to version 9? if so, how can I do this.

Thanks for the help with this.

How could you remove that? How can you misuse my credentials and connect to my email, if I didn’t agree with it? IMAP or Exchange is not an appologize.

Please restore this option. If it’s not doing any harm, what is the problem? This is an unnecessary change to an otherwise excellent email client.
