Boosting CATIA

How to make CATIA to start faster?

Every time you open CATIA it opens automaticly also the Assembly Design module. It takes some extra time to open it, even if you don't need it. Turning off this option will make CATIA faster to start.

To do it, you have to add a new environment variable. To add a new environment variable go to:
1. Start Menu and right click on Computer. Select Properties. (Windows 7) or right click on the Start Menu and select System (Windows 10)
2. Select Advanced system settings
3. In the Advanced tab, go to Environment Variables
4. Select New
5. Create a new variable as shown on Fig.1
Variable name is: CATNoStartDocument
Variable value is: 1
