No "Welcome Page". I can't seem to locate the correct parameter for turning this off, when I'm specifying a Group-Project at the command-line.

Specifically, when I use the "-np" option; the "Welcome Page" doesn't load, but neither does my project. 

There seems to be some conflict with what this does? In reality, "-np" is No-Project && No-Welcome-Page...

StackOverflow says "-np" == "No Project"

EmbT says "-np" == "No Welcome Page"

Q: How do you load a project and the IDE with a single-click AND don't have a "Welcome Page".

I'm trying to get rid of the "Welcome Page" as it takes about 60 seconds of "Application Not Responding" before it comes back. Which annoys me.

  1. Not what I did since when I start Delphi without a project it shows the welcome page but obviously you hate it and want to get rid of it entirely: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5003275/embarcadero-d2010-hide-welcome-page

  2. Thanks Stefan Glienke . I saw the registry hacked and then started looking into "sanctioned" methods with command-lines, that's when I found "-np" seems to have the behavior of "No Project" && "No Welcome".

  3. I deleted the package reference for the welcome page from the registry. ;-)
