Turn off Splash Screen in Photoshop for Mac

After investing in an X-Rite i1 and improving the environment to work colors accurately, you don't expect surprises that you can't control. My eyes go out of calibration every time I open the app in v24.2. Color Saturation at max, WHY??? Could you add the option to turn off the splash screen, like in Lightroom?

Oh yes, I can see that the splash screen can zap your color vision for the next half hour 😄

 

These days it's critical to look away until Photoshop has fully loaded. Or keep sunglasses handy.

Hi

You asked about the Splash Screen and have gotten two answers for the Home Screen instead.

 

If you meant the Splash Screen, the answer is that no, you can't turn it off, but you can join the 2012 thread and Upvote it there. As of right now there are only 61 votes.

As I've been told, the home screen isn't color managed. Another reason to disable it.

 

No, I'm not turning it on just to check 😉
