After crash, LiberKey NOT ask to restore apps

Hello,

If the computer crashes, then after I reboot and I run any LiberKey app, the LiberKey says that "X, Y and Z applications were running" and displays a button "Restore applications now".

OK, but what happens if I don't want to restore those apps? I can't not click on the button.

I couldn't find an option to disable LiberKey asking me if I want to restore the apps.

Hello,

It is the main concept of LiberKey. If you use a lot of LiberKey applications at the same time, for any reason, your computer reboot, a blackout or others, when you launch again only ONE LiberKey application, the LiberKeyPortabilizer is able to make a rollback of applications launched before the reboot. So your computer is safe of traces (both in registry and harddrive) and all configurations files have been restored exactly like a normal shutdown.

That is why you have the "Restore applications now" window without possibility to avoid Restore.

opendev, as this windows is moreless informative and can't be avoided, would it be possible to have an option to hide it automatically ?

Not sure it is a good option. LiberKeyPortabilizer is going to do a job after a problem. I think it is normal that the user is informed.
If this window is open every time, there is a real problem which need to be solved (so if hide, nobody will know).

The problem in my case is that the message appears even when I shut down the computer normally.

  • Windows boots
  • I click on a shortcut to mount an encrypted volume with TrueCrypt
  • TrueCryptLKL is started. LIberKey is not running at this point
  • LiberKey portabilizer pops-up a message telling me to restore the applications that were running.
  • I must click on the "Restore Now" button for the message to disappear
  • Only then is TrueCrypt started
  • None of the programs listed in the "Restore" message are restored.

I think it may happen because I start TrueCryptLKL before LiberKey is running. Sometimes I don't want to run LiberKey right away... Actually, I have shortcuts to LKL applications on RocketDock. To the LKL files - not the application executable. And I recall they all run OK without warnings, even when LiberKey is not running.

I'll change my TrueCrypt shortcut to the application executable instead, and see what happens.
