How do I dismiss a window that keeps on reappaearing in Photoshop? It's the Photoshop "home" window

How do I permanently dismiss a window that keeps on reappaearing in Photoshop?  It's the Photoshop "home" window with the table of recently-displayed files.  Anytime I have the nerve to open a file in a window for the first time, Photoshop adds this window in the background, a window not dismissable with a key command.

Go to Preferences > General and uncheck 'Auto Show the Home Screen'   then go back to the home screen, open a document and you should never see it again.

It's that second part that is the kicker. If you only uncheck the option and exit Photoshop and go back in. The Home screen will still be there. Maybe Adobe should review this so that it works as expected without the detour. Thanks Dave.
