'Maps' and 'Stocks' are automatically opening every time I Log In to my new iMac. I DO NOT have either of these apps setup to 'Open at Login'
Why does this happen and how do I stop/prevent them from doing this?
Thanks

iMac (24-inch, M1, 2021, 2 ports)

- Safari is redirecting to remove chillsearch.xyz and nearbyme.io after installing adobe flash playerHi All,I have upgraded my Mac to latest version 12.6. While browsing on Safari, I had a pop-up for installing adobe flash player and which I did( to download a zip file). From then, when I type Google in Safari website or any other search on safari address bar, it directs to Chillsearch.xyz or nearbyme.io.I checked the extensions on Safari as well as Chrome. There are no extensions, but still the search is being redirected to Chillsearch.xyz or nearbyme.io.Attached screenshot also when I removed the nearby.io in reader-(websites in Sarai preferences) it reappears after restarting the MacBook ProPlease suggest.

- Opening an app/program on iMac prompts me to like open a file first?I just got a new iMac M1 running 12.5.1 Monterey. But I cant figure out what setting is causing this. Every application I open (be it Pages, Numbers, Quicktime...anything) opens up with like a prompt page like it wants me to open or find an existing file first...rather than just taking me to the normal start-up page of the app. How do I fix this?This is an example from Pages. I open the app and this pops up first. I can then hit that New Document button or cancel and it takes me to the normal app page. How can I stop this?What do I have selected that is doing this? This happens with every single app I open. 4375

You are welcome and thank you too.
Do come back to the Apple Support Communities ( ASC ) in the future, if / or when additional questions may arise
Aside - Some Native Apple Application will Totally Close when the Red Close Application is invoked.
Some others like Notes, Mail and some others may appear to be closed but are actually still open.
Example in image below.
The Notes Application was Closed with Red Button and yet still appears in Dock with a Black Dot below it. This means it is closed but not not really Totally Closed

Hello P. Phillips,
Thanks for that suggestion. That box WAS checked. (I never paid much attention to that box before).
I unchecked it, then did two tests, 1.) log out and 2.) Shut Down.
Both times, upon restarting and logging in, the apps did NOT open, which is the result I wanted.
Thank you.
NOTE: The odd thing here is that neither app was 'open' before when I logged off and/or shut down. I would always close the apps after logging in. Never-the-less your suggestion seems to have fixed my issue. Thanks again.
