Thanks for the link to automate — no reopen last session. This was very annoying. I have added your website to my favorites page.

Once again, it show MS did not know what they are doing. sometime people do want to restore the las browsed sessions – accidentally closed the browser with multiple tabs. Chrome.exe has the command line to –restore-last-session
to let users create a short cut to reopen the previous sessions. Why is this so hard for them to understand.

I am using Vista 64-bit with IE8. I needed to add a QWORD (64-bit) Value instead of a DWORD (32-bit) Value in order for this to work. Hope this helps.
