Do you every day have to close down the home screen after opening Socrates.  There is a way that you can switch it off.
You do this in preferences, click on edit, then preferences.  Any changes made in here are local to your own computer and don’t affect anyone else’s computer.  Lots of good stuff in here but for today’s subject click on the web features icon and then in the “load Socrates home on startup” section click on no.

Now when you open Socrates the home screen won’t appear.
You can always get back to the home screen at any time if you wish by clicking on the home screen icon, see below.
