My experience on Windows is that if you launch Squeak.exe by double-
clicking, it can take a while to bring up the dialog where you can
choose an image. However, if you drag an image file onto Squeak.exe,
or use a batch file to pass it as a parameter, the image starts up
much faster.

I believe that if you search for and use the latest windows executable (3.9.2 is the version I'm using, although there appear to be 3.10.x versions for windows available as well), then it will start very quickly by just double clicking 
squeak.exe, and that the reason is very similar to what you have written.  It was just fixed in either 3.9.1 or 3.9.2 (after being 'broken' for a very long time).
