Abstract
Methods, systems and computer products provide for capturing and restoring application settings states and associated user data during unexpected application shutdowns and subsequent restarts. Data representing in-use application settings state and in-use user data are stored on a periodic basis, or upon notification of an impending application shutdown. Upon restart, any application deployed prior to shutdown is re-deployed according to the stored application settings state for each application and any in-use documents or other data are re-deployed according to the stored user data.
