Whenever I shut down xubuntu, if I happen to have any programs open, they start back up when I start up xubuntu. How do I stop it from doing this? The reason I want to stop it instead of just closing all my programs before shutting down is because I have an apache server running in the background, which is stopping lampp from functioning, and the only way I know how to stop it without lampp is to shut down the computer. But then xubuntu starts it right back up when my computer starts up.

You need to disable the xubuntu option to save the session state. There are two possible places for this setting:

  • At the bottom of the logout dialogue box there is a checkbox about saving the session state.
  • At Applications-> Settings -> Xfce 4 Settings Manager -> Session and Startup

Also try removing all files in ~/.cache/sessions/

If this still fails, try modifying the kioskrc to add option "[xfce4-session] SaveSession=NONE" see: How can I turn off Xfce session saving system-wide?

However, if your actual problem is how to shutdown Apache, then also see this official page on how to stop Apache
