Using Windows shortcuts, you can open Rhino using a number of options.

/nosplash
Suppress splash screen. View the splash screen with the About command.
/safemode
Starts Rhino in safe mode without OpenGL or third-party plug-ins.

Set the language. For example, /language=1041 starts in Japanese, /language=1033 starts in English, etc.

Save and restore Rhino workspace settings. The scheme saves the following settings:
| ● | Command defaults |
| ● | Dialog box positions |
| ● | All settings in the Rhino Options pages such as aliases, appearance and colors settings, mouse settings, render settings, shortcut keys |
| ● | Recently-used file list |
| ● | Toolbar layout |
To save schemes
| 1. | Make a Windows desktop shortcut to Rhino like this: "C:/Program Files/Rhino.exe" /scheme="WhiteBackground" |
| 2. | Set up Rhino with your white background colors and exit. |
| 3. | Start Rhino from this shortcut. Rhino will find and store all it's settings in: HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/McNeel/Rhinoceros/5.0/Scheme: WhiteBackground/... |
| 4. | Make another shortcut: "C:/Program Files/Rhino.exe" /scheme="BlackBackground" |
| 5. | Set up Rhino with your black background colors and exit. |
| 6. | Start Rhino from this shortcut. Rhino will find and store all it's settings in: HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/McNeel/Rhinoceros/5.0/Scheme: BlackBackground/... |
Safe mode is a method of opening Rhino with features disabled that might be the cause of crashing.
Safe mode is not designed to be a working mode – it is a troubleshooting, problem solving mode.
Use safe mode if Rhino crashes immediately on starting, crashes when shading, or crashes when running commands that are part of a plug-in. Please report all problems crashing Rhino to the Rhino development team.
If you launch Rhino in safe mode, the following items will be disabled:
| ● | Any start-up commands listed in General Options. |
| ● | Command line scripts specified by the "/runscript" argument. |
| ● | All plug-ins. |
| ● | Templates. |
| ● | OpenGL shading. |
To open Rhino in safe mode
On the Windows Start button, under Programs, select Rhinoceros in Safe Mode.
