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.

    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

    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".

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