Here are some steps we recommend to stop applications from automatically opening:

1. Check for any startup applications that have been added to your device - this can include useless programs or bloatware.
2. Adjust your settings to prevent apps from automatically downloading and installing from unknown sources.
3. Adjust your web browser settings to disable automatic loading of pop-ups and ads.
4. Check to see if new extensions have been added and disable any extensions that you didn’t install.
