Code:

Backup gui.json first, as that command will overwrite all settings stored in that file. Although, I doubt this has anything to do with the splash screen. Most likely the calibre main window is starting up on an external monitor or secondary screen. |
THANK YOU!!!
Hi. I ran in debug mode and got this:

Starting up...
then it stopped, and just stayed there for a while. Should I be trying to run this in sudo?
I SEE the splash screen on my main monitor (I'm going to try to attach the screenshot). It just says "Initializing User Interface..." in the corner. It's not showing on any other screen. The ONLY reason I was going to turn it off was because it was suggested here as a resolution to my problem... so I'll hold off until I hear from you.
