Q: Where to control Resume feature in 10.8.5?
I want applications not to re-open when I restart my machine. I'm running 10.8.5, and when I looked this up on-line, I saw people talking about unchecking the Resume feature in the General window in System Preferences.

But what it does now is open things like Photoshop, Microsoft Word, etc. which are not listed in my Login Items but rather were things I had been working on (but closed!) before I rebooted the machine.
