Overview

Check the types of session data you want to save.
Click OK.

Click Restore Session on the File menu.
In the Save Restore Session dialog box, enter the name of the session file you want to restore. You can type or browse for the file name.

See Tips for a quick way to restore a debug session.

NOTE: Restoring the current directory or program settings will cause your program to reload.

A quick way to restore a debug session is to use the Recent Sessions list on the File menu. This restores all the session data that was saved in the file you select.
When you restore a session, the available session data will be checked automatically.
Restoring the current directory or program settings will cause your program to reload. You may want to uncheck these if you do not need to restore this information.
If you save a session to a file that already has session data in it, the types of session data you chose to save previously will be checked by default.
