When I start 3.8.10 on Windows and select Open file, the dialog opens in

3.8 only gets security fixes, but if there were something wrong that
remains in 3.9, we would try to fix it.
*There was a release, I remember not which, that did start in W/S32
because that was somehow Windows' default. We quickly changed that for
the reasons you specified.
