Reverse auto start on Mac OS X?

Greetings,

I am running latest version of syncthing on Mac OS X Yosemite. I have successfully set up autostart and everything seems to be working fine. I used the non-Homebrew instructions here: http://docs.syncthing.net/users/autostart.html

However, for troubleshooting purposes, I need to ‘undo’ the autostart. If I simply remove the syncthing.plist from ~/Library/LaunchAgents will that disable it until I am done troubleshooting? Thanks for the help!

Removing the syncthing.plist does the trick.

I believe you can achieve the same by unloading the .plist as well, but not 100 % sure:

launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/syncthing.plist

Yes - I removed the syncthing.plist from ~/Library/LaunchAgents and that worked. Additionally, I shut down syncthing from the web GUI, too. Thanks for the help!
