Win10 upgraded from Win8.1 which was upgraded from Win8.
Shell was: explorer.exe /select,explorer.exe
I replaced it with: explorer.exe
Problem solved!

This didn’t work for me but i fixed it by replacing the value of Shell with the one in the picture – `explorer.exe`, instead of `Explorer.exe “”`. Now i no longer see the My Computer window when the computer starts.

I couldn’t find PersistBrowsers either. After a (regedit) search, I found it under the ‘Folders’ folder in ‘Advanced’. Unfortunately there are several options to the right of PersistBrowsers. I changed ‘CheckedValue’ and ‘DefaultValue’ to 0. I’m sad to say this didn’t work for me however…though nothing has so far. I have NO idea what changed on my computer to make this folder open at startup. Super annoying :o/
