Assuming you're not talking about an encrypted partition: "MX User Manager" from menu, "Options" tab, check to enable autologin for that user.

Do you automatically login to your desktop? If so, this is what worked for me using Vivaldi.

I must master it as I must master my life. Without me, my Fluxbox is useless. Without my Fluxbox, I am useless.
