How to prevent FortiClient from autostart on Mac Catalina

[JackOh]

Hi,

How can we disable automatic loading of FortiClient on macOS Catalina?

Any idea?

Did you try systems-preferences> user-groups> login items and remove the app from that location ?

Sure I have, but there is no entry for FC.

Is there anybody who can help? There is no documentation about this issue.

Hi,

it's installed in LaunchAgents and LaunchDaemons, there are couple of them. You can find them in:

/Library/LaunchDaemons/

/Library/LaunchAgents/

just look for everything with com.fortinet in the name

To control them use launchctl
