karabiner software update won't stop opening on startup

OS 10.12
Karbiner (last version before most recent)
Macbook Pro

I am just having trouble getting the Karabiner Software Update window to stop popping up at startup. There’s no way to prevent this that I can tell. I cleaned out my system registry pretty well and can’t find any other karabiner files but the Software Update is relentless even after uninstalling Karabiner with the built-in uninstall function. I would prefer not to have to reinstall my OS and all of my applications just to get rid of Karabiner… Help?

I'm having a similar issue. Just installed the latest update. The application is no where to be found but three processes are still running that I can't get rid of.

machine:~ user$ ps aux | grep karabiner

user           259   0.1  0.0  2471072   2920   ??  S     4:58PM   0:00.05 /Library/Application Support/org.pqrs/Karabiner-Elements/bin/karabiner_event_dispatcher

user           466   0.0  0.0  2471132   3504   ??  S     4:59PM   0:00.09 /Library/Application Support/org.pqrs/Karabiner-Elements/bin/karabiner_console_user_server

user           756   0.0  0.0  2432804    748 s000  S+    5:02PM   0:00.00 grep karabiner

root               55   0.0  0.0  2473596   4980   ??  Ss    4:58PM   0:00.23 /Library/Application Support/org.pqrs/Karabiner-Elements/bin/karabiner_grabber   

When I try to kill them with kill -9, they simply respawn.

How do I get rid of these?

I did find a way to stop it. 

launchctl unload /Library/LaunchAgents/org.pqrs.karabiner.karabiner_console_user_server.plist
