CNC 12 Automatically launches on Windows startup

Hey Guys,
Simple inquiry that I cannot seem to locate the solution to.

I originally purchase an Acorn board for a Lathe, but ended up using it on a mill conversion. I had installed the free CNC 12 software for Lathe, then subsequently installed the Mill software.

On starting up Windows10, the CNC12 Lathe program starts automatically, ie, I don't have to double click the icon. I then have to close it and start Mill and when I do I get a request to restart Acorn... No big deal, just inconvenient. Is there a option somewhere where I can remove the auto loading of CNC12 Lathe?
Just uninstall it could work, but that aside, hoping there is another solution.

Thanks in advance guys.

BTW... love the product... it works!!!... all those years of trying and trying to get Mach working. I have a lathe project in the works and a plasma table that is driving me crazy... a topic for another thread... but I can see two more Acorn's making there way to my workshop.
Cheers,

Marcus
