How to disable autostart of Microsoft Upload Center in MS Office 2013

How to disable autostart of Microsoft Upload Center in MS Office 2013
Microsoft Upload Center is a new addition to Microsoft Office 2013 which starts automatically on windows boot up. This is helpful to store MS Office documents online and synchronize with SkyDrive. So many people including me don't need this feature. I've seen in so many forums, people have been asking for the method to disable the autostart of MS Upload Center. Microsoft has not provided any uninstall feature for upload center, so I'm sharing a simple trick to disable autostart of upload center when windows starts.
1. Open windows explorer and navigate to this location "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office15".
2. Now find MSOSYNC.exe in the folder.
3. Simply, rename it as MSOSYNCbackup.exe

That's it. It will no longer autostart.
