How do I reopen all Windows after rebooting? Having to manually close everything is a pain and a huge disincentive to reboot!!

Hello Joseph. This is Emily.

As a peer user, I just want to point out that there's a feature that can achieve some of that, but not all. You can go to Settings > Accounts > Sign in options. Scroll down a bit and you will see the option "Automatically save my restartable apps and restart them when I sign back in". Turn that on. The reason I said some, but not all, is because this is not working for all apps. Mostly just Microsoft apps.

If you use Chrome browser, you can also go to Chrome's settings > On startup, and choose the "continue where you left off" option. This way when you relaunch the browser, it will carry on.

Similar feature is also available on Edge. You can paste this following into Edge's address bar:

edge://settings/startHomeNTP

And choose the "Open tabs from the previous session".

I know this is not 100% what you are looking for, but hopefully it eases some of the pain. Good luck!

Hey Joseph how you doing. I'm running on beta insider so i don't know if you can do this. But here's how i did it.

Under Settings go to "Accounts > Login options" Then scroll down to Additional Configuration and you should find an option named "Automatically save my rebooting applications and reboot them when i log back" (or something similar, it may change since I'm running on Spanish) Hopefully this helps.
