There are some apps that start up automatically on my system (e.g., Microsoft Office Update Assistant) that I do NOT want automatically started. In a UNIX system I would look for a crontab and update it according to my wishes, but I don't see the equivalent in MacOS (Catalina). I don't like things starting up on my system unless I start them, so my intention is to learn how this process works on Catalina so I can disable entries I don't want to run as well as add entries which I DO want to run.
In the case of the Microsoft Office Update Assistant, I know where this app resides, but I don't know how it is started. It didn't used to start uip by itself, but after an Office update, this behavior began. When I contacted Microsoft about this change in behavior, I was essentially told it was working as designed.
Hope someone can help.
