Windows 10: A way to reopen previously running programs after rebooting

Hi,
Is it possible to reopen programs I was running after shutting down my PC? I have some PDF files, Reference software (Mendeley) with multiple tabs open and also multiple file explorer paths (multiple browser tabs too, but this is easily retrievable). Would like to get back to this after I reboot my PC. Is it possible?

Windows 10 reopens program after shutdown or restart

Thanks again for your suggestions.

I have cortana disabled and dont keep a microphone plugged in.

Just to explain further, I know ways to avoid programs reopening by shutting down and restarting in specific ways, therefore my question is not to find other ways to avoid programs reopening on startup. What Im after is a way to avoid programs reopening
*regardless* of the shut down or restart method used.

Its not the end of the world for me if there isnt a setting, of course we will be fine adapting, but if there is a way to properly disable it then that would make my experience with Windows better.

 

Unable to reopen programs from the task bar

Hi Rob,

For us to narrow down your concern with reopening your programs from the task bar, we would like to know the following:

• Were there any changes made on your computer prior to the issue (e.g., updates, software installation)?
• To make sure that we have not missed on anything, what troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

We look forward to your response.

 

DISGUSTING! NO OPTION! Windows 10 1709 is reopening programs on reboot

It does not actually solve the problem but is just to avoid it.

Using shutdown command or Alt+F4 way changes the general habit, and if the reboot is caused by other programs instead of manual operation, we would not have any other options to disable the reopening.
