Greetings all. I do not want to complicate things, however, I have something similarly related to this issue, but I have been reluctant and afraid to ask because I have a feeling is silly.
Most of the time I have three to four BBEdit windows open with 10+ files open in each. When I shut down the computer with these windows open. Sometimes on a restart the three or four BBEdit windows open with the files. Other times BBEdit opens to a blank single page. When I shut down BBEdit before shutting off the computer, the same hit-and-miss. Sometimes the windows come back and sometimes it is just a single blank page when I restart BBEdit. I have not found the sauce for it to consistently restart with the windows and files I had when I shut down. I apologize if I complicated or diluted this topic, but I felt it was similar. - gerald On Tue, Dec 12, 2023 at 5:33 AM 'Dan Nessett' via BBEdit Talk < [email protected]> wrote: > Thanks for the reply.
