How-to Guide

1. Turn on Save Work Status on Exit

Entry: WPS home page top-right global settings menu → Settings → Save Work Status on Exit

  1. Open WPS Office for Mac.
  2. Click the global settings button at the top right of the home page.
  3. Click Settings.
  4. Turn on Save Work Status on Exit.

Success Criteria

  • Interface result: the setting is shown as enabled.
  • What you can do next: WPS can record the current tab state when you quit the app.

Tips While Using

  • Common mistake: opening only the global settings menu without entering Settings, which can make the option hard to find.
  • Environment note: sign in if you plan to sync a workspace across devices later.

2. Restore previous tabs and editing state after relaunch

Entry: turn on the setting, then quit and relaunch WPS

  1. Make sure Save Work Status on Exit is already enabled.
  2. Open the document tabs you want to keep and continue editing.
  3. Quit WPS.
  4. Launch WPS again.
  5. Check whether the previous tabs and editing state are restored.

Success Criteria

  • Interface result: the document tabs from the previous session appear after launch.
  • What you can do next: continue editing the same documents directly.

Tips While Using

  • Common mistake: closing all tabs before quitting, which leaves no open-tab session to restore.
  • Environment note: the related files still need to remain accessible.

3. Save the tab list as a workspace in integrated mode

Entry: tab-list saving workflow in integrated mode

  1. In integrated mode, open the group of document tabs you want to keep.
  2. Turn on Save Work Status on Exit.
  3. Quit WPS so the current tab list is recorded.
  4. Save the tab list as a workspace when needed.
  5. Sign in with the same account in a supported sync environment and check whether the workspace is available.

Success Criteria

  • Interface result: the tab list is saved as a reusable workspace.
  • What you can do next: access that workspace in a later session or on another device when sync is available.

Tips While Using

  • Common mistake: not using integrated mode when you want the full workspace-saving scenario.
  • Environment note: cross-device sync requires account sign-in and network access.
