Yes, inhibit-startup-screen does not take effect if it is set in site-start.el. > We tried to use initial-buffer-choice but this has an unwanted side > effet: the splashscreen no longer appears, however, dropping a file on > the Emacs icon no longer opens that file. I can not reproduce this. Can you provide a simple reproducible test case? I tried with a .emacs file containing only the line (setq initial-buffer-choice t) and dragging a file into the Emacs window (I don't know what you mean by "dropping a file on the Emacs icon") opens that file, as expected. However, this is on GNU/Linux. It's possible that there is a bug in the Windows port; maybe someone else can check.
