How to change default tab of Welcome dialog

Launching Solidworks or clicking Home button in toolbar, opens a welcome dialog box with 4 tabs.
Home - Recent - Learn - Alerts
And Home tab is activated.

Is there any way to ask Solidworks to make "Recent" tab the default one?
I prefer to see a list of recent files by default when I click the Home button.

Thanks.

Instead of home button, use R button on the keyboard.

LOL.

This reminds me of years ago when the DSS "logo" appeared in the middle of the background to the left of the SolidWorks logo.

I was having a bit of a tussle with my VAR at the time about some functionality that I thought was broken, that they proclaimed was a feature.

Their comment was something like "nothing is added which isn't functionality enhancing", to which I replied "what functionality does the new DSS logo enhance?"

He was unable to respond.....

Thanks. That will do. Never knew about R shortcut.
