In the Eclipse Photon (1) release C/C++ the CheckBox to skip the Welcome Screen in future sessions is missing. Is there any other way to disable it in the settings?
Edit: I do not see checkboxes (but plusses?) in Help->Content->Scope->new

Thanks to a hint in the comments I found a solution. In the file
$WORKSPACE/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.ui.intro/introstate
is a tag state
with attribute reopen
set to "true"
. Changing that to "false"
worked. The complete modified file is as follows.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<state reopen="false"/>
