[Solved] Disable Dropbox auto start

Hi, I can't make Dropbox not start automatically at login.

Unchecking the "Start Dropbox on system startup" doesn't work. It doesn't show up in my Xfce settings among Session and Startup. There's a command: dropbox autostart n that works on Ubuntu-based systems. Not in Arch.

I want Dropbox to remain in firejail, but this way it launches outside firejail.

Could anyone please give me an idea about which config file should I change to stop this? smile

Info:

$ pacman -Q | grep dropbox
dropbox 21.4.25-1
thunar-dropbox 0.2.1-1
$ systemctl list-unit-files | grep drop
dropbox@.service                           disabled

That's because in Arch the Dropbox command-line remote-controller script is in the dropbox-cli AUR package and can be used with `dropobox-cli autostart n`

Re: [Solved] Disable Dropbox auto start

Thank you really much! smile
By the way the problem fixed itself. I ran dropbox autostart n and check in the tick again, cleared it, and somehow it's fixed... I have no idea how. But thanks, anyways. smile
