I can only say that it was effective on three systems I own all
running (now) F32. Yes, when I upgraded, that file came back and the
unwanted Dophin instance at start-up time came back. But after
removing the file, the auto-start of Dolphin was gone for me on all
three systems. It may be that killing the dolphin --daemon process
before logging out is needed, too. But I do not see Dophin at
start-up or login time any more.
We probably have a difference in requirements. I do want to start some
Dolphin windows on login, but I always get an extra one and there's no
way to get rid of it other than killing it every time.
