Never reopen a window. Always start with an empty one.
This is incorrect.
I had a hot session with unsaved changes in the past. It required other people, so I haven't gone back to that project in a long time.
After the latest update to 1.43.0, that session now launches whenever I run VS Code.
The window.restoreWindows setting is none, but instead of restoring none windows, it's restoring this old session.
But, because some of the files are still being edited (which I can't complete without other people (who are busy)), I don't want to work on this old project now. I'd like it to have the previous (seemingly intended) behavior of NOT opening any projects.
Hot Exit
Now, if "files.hotExit": "onExitAndWindowClose" instead of the default onExit, it goes back to the previous behavior. If I launch VS Code, even though a hot session exists, it doesn't restore it on launch.
So it seems that the capability to restore NONE windows sure exists. So why isn't restoreWindows=none always respected?
tl;dr
restoreWindows=none is only respected if a different setting is changed from default.
