Splash screen change

Hello, I noticed that when I installed the June update (2.36.4434.381 32-bit 32 bit version), that the disable the splash screen option on the splash screen has been removed.  I'm curious to know...

Hi elz,

 

You can sign up a power BI free account, then sign in the account in Power BI Desktop to see "Show this page on startup" option in current Power BI Desktop version. Please refer to this article: Self-service sign up for Power BI.

 

Best Regards,

Hi Qiuyun,

Currently, I do not have a need for a power bi account.
Are you saying that there are functionality differences in power bi desktop, depending on whether or not you have a power bi account? Please advise.
Thank you
Tracy

    There shouldn't. Do you have a screenshot of your splash screen?

        Hi elz,

         

         As I always update the desktop to the latest version, I'm not able to check whether we can see "Show this page on startup" in previous version if we don't sign in. But the thing what I can make sure is we need to sign in the Power BI then the "Show this page on startup" option will be available in current Power BI desktop.

         

        Best Regards,
