Question File Manager closes when system locks - help

[joeschmoe2]

Anyone had this and/or know of a cure? For some reason now, every time my system locks (i.e. screen-saver comes up and I have to log in), when I log in, the file manager has closed. This is really getting old.....appreciate any help!

set in windows not to log out but only to lock windows
eventually I'm energy settings or login settings

do you need to login? you can just disable the need to login after screensaver or sleep was enabled

No, I want to keep the login requirement...on the off chance my laptop is stolen, I don't want them to have easy access to my files and information

PS: nothing else closes or seems affected, just the file mgr
