Splash screen and other start displays

[Blackblot]

Upon loading a PDF file, I first see a brief Sumatra splash screen, then a "Loading file path" screen, then the PDF file's bookmarks (if any), and finally, the PDF document is loaded. Please see the attached images

This all happens fast, is noticeable, and is unnecessary.

In the advanced settings, I have:

• NoHomeTab = true
• LazyLoading = true
• ShowStartPage = false

When loaded, a PDF should appear intact, without splash screens or "Loading path" prompt.

Please advise how to fix.
Thanks.

Much better. Thank you.

In the pre-release, the PDF opens mid-screen with the menu bar in the Sumatra window, then, as in my case, expands to fit the screen.

Here is the transition phase:
