Click the Startup tab. If you don't see it, select More Details at the bottom of the window.

Select Spotify from the list. Right-click and select Disable.

Spotify's auto-on status will show up in the Status column, which is now Disabled. The application will no longer be launched on boot.

You can choose one of the two methods above to prevent Spotify from starting when you turn it on.
