Feature request: Make it possible to skip ALL *.lck files when opening a crashed document

@LinSims:

Wait. Are you saying that if this checkbox is disabled when working locally, that the .lck files won't ever be generated again after a crash?

Bjoern,

Is this (https://tracker.adobe.com/#/view/FRMAKER-10835) a correct URL? I get "No issues found" in the public tracker.

I would like to amend the requirement by somthing like this:

«However there is still the task to open all the *.auto.fm files and save them to the *.fm files. IMHO this should be automated by a switch in the Restore Last Session process.

During development of scripts working on books (or another bunch of files) it often happens that FM crashes (even with no crash log) and leaves the *.auto.fm files there besides the *.lck files.»

I agree too. In fact, I got so tired of this that I just made a Windows batch file that I run after every crash. Just a bunch of lines like this:

del /P C:\documentation\some_folder\*.lck  
del /P C:\documentation\some_folder\*.recover*  
del /P C:\documentation\some_other_folder\*.lck  
del /P C:\documentation\some_other_folder\*.recover*  

etc.

Great idea and I voted for it, Bjørn.

In the meantime—for others reading this post—consider keeping the active project folder open in File Explorer, in Details view and sorted by Type. Then it's just a click, Shift+click to select all the .lck files and delete them.
