In previous versions of Office we had to use command line parameters that would suppress the splash screen on launch, well it looks like Microsoft heard us and finally added an option to disable them in the Office apps. Read on to find out how.

Note: We would just like to point out that this does not speed up loading times.
Disabling the Office 2013 Splash Screens
Open your Office program of choice and click on the file menu.
