Question: Is there a way to force an RCP product to show a welcome page every time it the RCP was stared? (By default, the Welcome page is only shown for the first time the RCP is stared.)

I tried `org.eclipse.ui/SHOW_INTRO=true` in plugin\_customization.ini, but it did not do the trick...

Thanks,
Frank

Answer: 
In your intro xml you can have something like 

```
<contentProvider id="awc" class="org.eclipse.ui.intro.contentproviders.AlwaysWelcomeCheckbox" pluginId="org.eclipse.ui.intro">
    <text></text>
</contentProvider>

```

that allows the user to chose whether the intro page is shown every time. It displays a small checkbox wherever you place it. Don't know if it is possible to have it enabled by default.

If you don't want this, you could probably have it defined somehow in your `workbench.xml` and explicitly load the intro screen when you restore the RCP session.
Remove the `-showsplash`
