Is there a setting to disable or change this?

In older versions of Photoshop, the floating panels are automatically closed; it appears when you open a document. Newer versions doesn't do it anymore.

Please help, thank you.

Record an action that closes the navigator (using insert menu item), and assign a key command to that.

If this bothers you I would not have any undocked panels, and save your workspace.

Sorry do not have anything better on this one.

I don't remember a version of Photoshop that had a Home Screen where the floating panels didn't behave this way. My workaround is to close the floating panels, then reset my saved workspace the next time I use Photoshop.

AFAIK, there is not a way to turn off the floating panels automatically when files are closed.

I remember the CC versions had it close/minimize automatically when you close the documents. It's only when they transitioned to the later version that the feature was gone.

I guess maybe I'm just confusing it with when they didn't had homescreens during that time. That could be a possibility.
