Why do I have to do this myself?

WL-3.3.2 changed the auto launch behavior to be more native. As a result, the previous auto launch method had to be disabled, which users have to do themselves. We apologize if unwanted auto launches has bothered anyone, and we will learn from this mistake in the future.
