I have started testing Windows Vista and I have been impressed with the interface so far. Restart Manager looks like another reason to jump on board, but I will need many other reasons to make the lead. I do not think there will be a large software support base for these new features, at least not for a while.

The application ofcourse needs to be aware of Windows Vista and the Restart manager otherwise it will have to terminate and close all open files. Microsoft Office “12″ will fully support this feature however, as will other new versions of applications. I don’t think there will be that many at launch though that fully support this!

[...] Microsoft announced a new feature in their upcoming desktop operating system (Vista) called the Restart Manager. Applications are getting more and more ‘updates’ these days. It seems like each week one or more of my applications has a patch or a fix and I need to run the fix and then restart the machine. Microsoft has the answer, Restart Manager will save the ’state’ of the application update it and restart the application without the user having to restart the entire machine. Great work guys! (oh, any idea when you will release Vista?) More here, here, and here. [...]
