Automator Keeps Opening Multiple Untitled Files

automator

Exactly what the title says. Whenever I open Automator, by clicking on its icon, it keeps opening multiple files (Untitled, Untitled 2, Untitled 3). When I attempt to close them it asks me if I want to save changes for each one. This is incredibly annoying. Does anyone know how to stop this?

Delete the Saved State files.

  • Quit Automator.
  • Bring Finder to the front.
  • Hit Cmd ⌘ N for New Window, then Cmd ⌘ Shift ⇧ G for Go To...
  • Copy/paste ~/Library/Saved Application State/com.apple.Automator.savedState
  • Delete the folder contents.
