Capture 10.5 Re-Opening Issues

Ocassionally, OrCAD Capture 10.5, upon initiating, comes up with the dialog that has found some application which "did not close properly" and "do you want to save the project now?" follow-on dialog. I have always shutdown my projects very meticulously, even so, this dual dialog issue comes around about 30% of the time. I never loose anything, but it makes me wonder.

Incidentally, this error dialog only shows when starting OrCAD Capture from a cold computer boot-up. After I have used Capture, I can close and open it up a million times and never see this issue.

Any thoughts people?

Sounds like a typical M$OS dirty shutdown problem. Try always closing OrCad Capture cleanly before shutting down. Maybe even restart Capture and reclose with no changes, as well (this usually kills some temp files that M$OS creates.) Luck.
