Hi all,

I often met with the following akward situation which I hated a lot:

I am doing some work and opening 30+ of windows including 20+ browser
windows...

Often times I have to reboot, for example, in these a few days, the Windows
update downloaded some auto-update and requires for rebooting...

I have to close and save my works and my 30+ windows one by one and after
rebooting open them again one by one...

Is there a way that these processes can be automated?

Thanks a lot!
 
Doubtful, at least for all programs and windows. If you always open
the same files/documents/programs, you could always automate the
process with .bat files or the like. But this is just a rough
approxiamation of what you want.

As far as open webbrowsers, via Firefox you could quickly and easily
bookmark all the currently open tabs, and just as quickly reload them
all after the restart.

Sorry I can't give you any better advice.

Download www.avantbrowser.com

You can make groups of sites and store them (this is like groups of
favorites)

and you can go to FILE > Save all pages and exit.

This is the best browser in my opinion, it is based on the IE engine,
but that is a plus in my opinion. (I can hear the firefox fans breathing
down my neck as I type this).

Open a folder and go tools>view.

If the option box appears saying "Restore previous folders at logon" or
similar try that, see if it helps with part of the problem.

Click to expand...

I don't know how to do exactly that, but try these:

For local documents, make a shortcut to your Recent Documents folder,
and sort it by date -- then you can just group-select what you want and
open them all at once. I much prefer this way to the recent-documents
menu item. Exactly where your Recent Documents folder _is_ depends on
where MSW is storing your profile; if you're on a stock home or
small-business machine it's very likely `C:\Documents and Settings\<your
name here>\Recent`.

For wwwwindows, I'd try the history bar on your favorite browser.

and you don't always have to shut down your PC, you can either hibnate or
suspend. On resume everything will be as it was.

How?


suspend by clicking start menu, shutdown down and choose Suspend. The PC
if properly configured, will slows down to consume only about 40Watt, hard
drive shutds down, but can be resumed by keyboard / mouse or the power
button depending how the PC was installed/setup

HIBERNATE

as administrator, start menu, control panel, power option, enable
hibernation. This requires about disk space of almost 2x the MB of RAM.,
click OK....

this option used the least power, practiclly eveything is off


For some PC, best to have UPS for the above choices to work reliably. For
some newer PC, hibernate works even after power interruption before wake up
