Description
Just rightclick on Arduino IDE shotcut, choose Properties and you'll see it at Run field. This is Windows' startup option. Default is Normal window but we can choose Maximized or Minimized too. I'd like to start with maximized editor but I failed 'coz IDE handles it improperly - it maximizes splash screen!

Research direction
Reproduce the issue on Windows by setting the shortcut's Run field to Maximized and launching the Arduino IDE. Trace the startup handling around the splash screen and editor window; done means the editor, rather than the splash screen, opens maximized.
