MacOS – How to make finder launch to the previously closed location, on startup

findermacosmojave

My wife has just updated her OS to Mojave. She believes that prior to this update, she could close finder window, reopen it and find that all her tabs were restored. That is, she thinks that Finder was saving her "session", allowing for her to close finder, only to have that last session restored.

I am not sure about this – I do not remember this feature, although my memory is rather… what was I saying?

Anyway, if any of you have some insight/knowledge or solution I'd appreciate hearing it.

Here is the solution to the OS Mojave, Finder problem

  • Click on top-left Apple icon
  • Then click on System Preferences
  • Then General
  • And then uncheck the box saying, "Close windows when quitting an app"
  • It will save your session of Finder and when you restart your system it will show you last opened tabs of the session

NOTE: before Shut Down or Restart of the system, don't close the Finder
