Netgear Genie Attempting Connections with Auto-connections Already Selected
Pretty much the title. On boot-up Netgear Genie attempts to run the push n connect service, despite me already having automatically connect to wireless networks. When told to cancel, the genie re-initiates in a few seconds, disconnecting me entirely from my networks untill I task manage force close and manually re-select the network.
Untill recently it was fine, but during some random connectivity issues I unplugged and replugged in the adaptor, leading to this issue ever since.
Currently running windows 10. Thanks in advance!

Is that the Netgear desktop genie? Do you mean Windows boot?
If so, why not just disable the launch of the genie?
Genie is currently disabled on startup. Hence my confusion. At least, via task manager it is, and via the programmes properties, there doesnt appear to be any option to change it.
What do you mean by " Auto-connections Already Selected"?
Where is it already selected?
What is connecting to what?
These don't seem like familiar bits of the desktop genie.
A screen shot can be a great help.
