I had disabled Re-open Files From Last Session some time ago because of the issue I’m reporting now.
I recently enabled it and when I opened Layout, Layout proceeded to open up hundreds of files from years ago, some of which were no longer available.
I had to terminate Layout in Task Manager.
I delved into the settings file that’s buried in appdata and deleted all of the entries for the Layout files.
I’ve kept this feature enabled but Layout is still opening files that I had previously shut down and the number of previously opened files that Layout is opening is growing…
