Would it be possible to add a setting/option to restore Everything's previous search(es/tabs)?

Sometimes I need to close or restart Everything, and I often leave searches up in tabs as a reference/reminder for something I'm either actively working on, or monitoring, or need to get to. When Everything closes or the system shuts down, I lose all the searches, meaning I need to regularly copy/paste the searches into a note and re-paste when Everything opens next. Also in rare cases of a crash, whether system or software, software/Everything updates, etc.

Of course, not a big deal, just would be a nice setting to have! TIA

History -> Restore Previous Session is in development.

Thank you for the suggestion.

Oh I didn't even notice it there... fantastic! Great news, thanks for implementing.

For comparison in Mp3tag when you leave its Filter box [which is equivalent of Search Edit in Everything] with anything written in it and then close and re-open the program, then that something is still there - even if it was showing and still is yielding zero results

I would expect from Everything to be able to act in the same way, if not by default then by choice done somewhere in Options

You can set your Home search under Tools -> Options -> Home -> Search
(Use last value) will restore the previous search text.

So it is already possible, although buried within miriad of sub-options

Thank you for pointing it out to me
