Describe the issue Bitcoin Core QT auto loads wallet at startup
What behavior did you expect? I did not specify to load a wallet at startup.
What was the actual behavior (provide screenshots if the issue is GUI-related)? Starting Bitcoin Core QT with double click on bitcoin-qt.exe, then it auto loads a wallet at startup screenshot: https://i.ibb.co/FKDJSLn/img1.png I must click on OK.
My configuration file (bitcoin.conf):
0server=1
1testnet=0
2rpcuser=<redacted>
3rpcpassword=<redacted>
4daemon=1
System information
Bitcoin Core 22.0 Windows 11 x64

Issue looks like to be at line “2022-09-02T07:49:13Z Setting file arg: wallet = [“XXXX”]”
But why Bitcoin Core loads it? I did NOT specify it in bitcoin.conf
Thanks.
