windows opened in the same status as they were the previous time, including opened files. This is simply impossible to do with a restart.
I almost never keep files opened when not in immediate use, risk is to high IMHO, not of system failure but of my own memory failure :-))
Well, I may be working on a calc sheet in LibreOffice, and I have to go. I save the file, then I hibernate. When I come back, I continue work, that day or another day. It stays open. If it crashes, does not matter: the file was saved, too. meanwhile, the program stays open where I left, so that when I see it I remember that there is work pending there ;-)
I've been using Carlos's method for a couple years now on 13.2 as well as Win7, and more recently on Manjaro Linux. I've never had a problem with any documents being corrupted or lost changes and my machines are all set to hibernate (suspend to ram, or to disk if battery low) after being left unattended for a while. Most of my work is in LibreOffice, as well as programming editors. It is amazing how robust systems are these days in terms of reliability. And I can't remember a time when Opensuse's suspend to ram worked so reliably as it does on 13.2, (which is another reason I've not moved to Leap). -- After all is said and done, more is said than done.
