Have you ever been getting things done with many apps open, then suddenly needing to log out or restart your PC or due to power failure? It’s often irritating once you log back in and continue all the apps you were using. But with a minor tweak in Settings, Windows can remember and re-open your apps automatically when you log back in. This feature works with modern apps like MS Office and Edge, other apps downloadable from the Microsoft Store. It might not work with legacy desktop apps like Photoshop, for instance. Still, it is a handy feature, so let’s explore how this is done.
How to Automatically Resume Applications When Logging in on Windows 10: Conveniently
First, click on the Windows Start Menu and search for settings. Open the windows settings and go to “Accounts”.
Next, go to sign-in options, then scroll down a bit, and enable “Restart apps.”
That’s it. The next time you log out then sign back to Windows 10, restartable apps will reload automatically. Make sure not to close any apps before logging out. It will only remember the apps that you had simply open at the time you logged out. It’s also worth mentioning that each modern apps might not restart. Contrarily to this, you might find this behavior annoying. If you don’t like apps automatically resuming, go back to settings and revert these changes.
