FAMAS, it is annoying that this feature hasn't been implemented. LOL maybe if requests could be voted on to increase their visibility. I know, not in this universe but I did hear something about a squeaky wheel.
You probably know this already but if the WU has finished set the FS to paused before you exit the client. Paused status will persist and a new WU will not start. Another thing you can do is in the expert tab or for individual slots in the slots tab add pause-on-start true and it will start up with that slot or all slots paused.

Another option is to set "pause-on-start" to "true"
Then FAH will always start Paused and you'll have to manually start it every time.

I think there's such an option : paused = true/false in slot options.

If you use pause-on-start = true, it is a permanent setting. If you use pause = true/false, it gets stored every time you push the "pause"/"fold" button so it won't be there when you want it.
