    Create any illustrator artboard. Place an embedded image then save and close the document. Now reopen the document and the welcome screen appears. Sometimes this happens and sometimes not. You have to click the Home icon then the Ai Back button to get to your document. Clicking on the Recent icon will say it's already open. macOS 10.13.5 Illustrator 23.0.1
