How can I keep FreeMind from opening the last file from the last session?
One way is to disable the changing of the file “auto.properties” (which is in the same folder as user.properties). Be aware that the menu “Edit -> Preferences” will not change anything any more than! To do that go to the file auto.properties and delete everything behind “onStartIfNotSpecified=” in that line. Now set the file “auto.properties” to read-only. Another way is to change the auto.properties on the fly during startup. Copy the next lines of code into a batch-file and put this into the same directory as freemind.exe. This batchfile will add an extra line to the auto.properties file. In fact, it does the same as the above, but it still enables you to change the properties.
