Excel used to start on the home page and mow starts with a blank sheet

[ScooterNorm]

My excel (version Microsoft® Excel® LTSC MSO (16.0.14332.21007) 64-bit ) used to start on the Home page and now it starts up on a new worksheet.
How can I make open on the Home page like it used to?
Thanks,

File - Options - General then scroll down to the very last option and put a check in the box (mine isn't checked)

Thanks for your response.
On my version both check boxes at the bottom where checked.
I uncheck "Show the Screen.." saved and restarted, still opened with a blank worksheet.
Then I checked the "Show the Screen.." saved and restarted, still opened with a blank worksheet.
It seems that had no effect on this issue.

Re-install Excel ?

Before doing a re-install of Office try doing a repair

Repair an Office application - Microsoft Support

Repair broken Office app installations.

Also check in File -> Options -> Advanced -> General -> to see if there is anything in 'At startup, open all files in:'

Also, in the vba window in the Immediate window type the following and press Enter
?Application.StartupPath
Check for anything in the folder reported from this

In addition when I execute ?Application.StartupPath in the vba window in the Immediate window it says:
C:\Users\Norm\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Excel\XLSTART
The only thing in the folder is the PERSONAL.XLSB file.
And just to see if it was the issue, I removed it and reopened Excel and I got the same result.

Also, BTW each time I start Excel, the name of the Sheet1 file is incremented.
It's currently at Book25.xlsx and when I close excel and reopen it, the file is Book26.xlsx.....

Thanks,

Before trying a repair or a re-install, I thought I would just reboot my PC.
And silly me, that fixed the problem.
Thanks to everyone for your help, I really should have thought to reboot first.
Lesson learned (again Haha).

That gives me the impression that Excel never shut down correctly, if it happens again with Excel closed have a look in Task Manager and check if Excel is still showing.

Happy you have it working again
