2. Make sure windows updated today.

And how is this related to ISTA internals at all???
This is NORMAL as ISTA is designed that way!!!
Short reason: FASTA reading is disabled.
Long reason: Normally if connection loss is detected while FASTA data reading is not completed, only connection close option is offered. After FASTA reading is done, restore connection option is provided too. So no FASTA reading - no restore!
Solution 1: do not disable (reenable) FASTA reading.
Untested solution 2: add this line to ISTAGUI.exe.config:
<add key="BMW.Rheingold.CoreFramework.UseConnectionLossPopUpToCloseOperation" value="false" />
Would be NICE for anyone to test solution 2 and REPORT BACK!
P.S. solution 2 (if it works) will also enable reconnect option during FASTA reading. I have no idea whether that will work or cause potentially big problems as developers chose not to allow reconnect while reading FASTA. So if FASTA reading is NOT disabled and you use solution 2 - you do so on your own risk

Solution 2 works fine! Not as good as old ISTA versions but at least I don't have to restart session everytime
Thanks!
