- New feature: Added Restart Manager support. The Restart Manager is a standard feature of Microsoft’s Windows operating system.

Furthermore, it can re-invoke the application enabling it to restore its state from before the shutdown or crash.

WYSIWYG Web Builder now has built-in support for the Restart Manager by implementing an auto-save mechanism that performs the saving of the current project to a temporary file. If the application crashes due to an exception, it will be restarted and prompt the user to recover the auto-saved version if available.

Restart Manager support is only available in the 64-bit version!
