Just a suggestion YMMV etc., but because I have several different account 
files I start GC by clicking the relevant data file - and it loads 
automatically no matter what was open last time.

I did have to set up a mime-type for .xac files within KDE for this - I have 
no idea if Windows gets this step done as part of the install of GC or not.

HTH,
