Chrome was likely installed as an opt-in for some other software, but does not explain why it launches on startup.
In any case, you should be able to uninstall it from 'Apps & features'.
Here is more information, if you want to keep Chrome installed, but stop it from launching on starup:

In order for Chrome to launch, on Win 10 it should show up in: 'Apps & features' (which is what you searched, correct?).
