A command has been added to Session and Startup -> Application Autostart , what needs to be added /usr/bin/skypeforlinuxto it so that it starts without windows appearing? Now, at system startup, an empty white window appears that cannot be closed until you expand it from the bottom panel of running applications.

Answer 1

AFAIR in Skype itself in its options there is "Run at system startup" and "Run minimized". In any case, in those distant times when I had Skype (three years ago), these options were present there.
