# "When Synk is started" preference

Synk can take several different actions when it is launched:

- "Open Untitled document" -- this is the standard behavior for Cocoa document-based applications. A blank document will appear, ready to be edited.
- "Open specific document" -- this option is useful when you only work with one particular document. Synk will automatically open this document when it is launched, saving you the time of finding and opening it. (This option is also helpful for system administrators setting it up for users.)
- "Do nothing" -- if you don't have a particular document you always use but just don't like the untitled document appearing, you can choose this option to make Synk do nothing.
