Nemo auto-opens on startup to my external usb drive

On Manjaro Cinnamon edition
I have a USB-attached external HDD
Everytime I boot/login, nemo automatically opens to it.
I don’t want that to happen.
Anyone know how to stop it?

thanks!

Thanks! I still want it to automount, I just didn’t want the folder to automatically open. Thankfullty, that behavior is right below the one you showed me:
“Automatically open a folder for automounted media.”
