programs are being autostarted for no reason

I have nothing in these folders and several programs are being autostarted for no reason. Chromium, nautilus, Okular, and quadrapassel are the programs being started. I have nothing in my .bashrc. Not sure where else to look. I have no idea why this is happening and it is driving me crazy.

Code:

~/.config/autostart/
$KDEHOME/Autostart

I tried to follow this guide in reverse with no luck.
Autostart

gvfsd

GVFSD(1)							   User Commands							  GVFSD(1)

NAME

       gvfsd - Main daemon for gvfs

SYNOPSIS

       gvfsd [OPTION...]

DESCRIPTION

       gvfsd is the main daemon for the gvfs virtual filesystem. It provides the org.gtk.vfs.Daemon name on the session bus. gvfsd is autostarted
       by GIO clients if it is not running.

       The primary task of gvfsd is to act as a mount tracker/manager. It spawns new backends when requested and keeps track fo their lifecycle,
       maintaining a list of active mounts and creates direct connections to them.

       Since gvfs backends are running as children of the gvfsd process, it is possible to start gvfsd in a terminal and set environment variables
       to get debug output from individual backends.

       gvfsd also starts the gvfsd-fuse(1), and provides it the mount point where the fuse file system should be mounted.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
	   Prints a short help text and exits.

       -r, --replace
	   Replace the currently running gvfsd instance.

       --no-fuse
	   Don't start the fuse filesystem.

ENVIRONMENT

       GVFS_DISABLE_FUSE
	   If this environment variable is set, gvfsd will not start the fuse filesystem.

EXIT STATUS

       On success 0 is returned, a non-zero failure code otherwise.
