Stop Quicktime and Preview from Auto-Restoring What You Left Open

OS X: Auto-restore works great when you want to pick back up where you left off working, but how many times do you leave open a photo or video you actually want to see again when you re-open Preview or Quicktime? A couple of terminal commands can disable this annoying—and potentially embarrassing—feature of OSX.

Enter this into Terminal to fix Preview:

defaults write com.apple.Preview NSQuitAlwaysKeepsWindows -bool false

And this one for Quicktime:

defaults write com.apple.QuickTimePlayerX NSQuitAlwaysKeepsWindows -bool false

That's it! Just change false to true at the end of both statements to bring back auto-restore.
