I went thru Edit->Preferences  each of the categories on the left in that
window and did not see anything about Status bar.  In General, I have now
turned off: Show Splash screen (to see what happens next time for this
issue).

Since I can close windows with Esc or closing windows in the correct order,
this startup issue is no longer an issue for me.  I was just trying to help
you guys by providing feedback.
