    Microsoft is introducing a new feature called "Timeline" that will be built into the Fall Creators Update and will allow you to go back to open programs, documents and more.

    The Windows 10 Fall Creators Update will introduce a number of new features for users, including one that allows users to go back to an earlier snapshot of their systems, and restore open programs and documents with a feature called Timeline, which was unveiled today at Microsoft's Build developer conference.

    Timeline allows the user to jump back in time to find what they were working on. It works with a visual feature that has a scrollbar, allowing you to scrub through your history of open apps, documents and more, and then restoring that session. The feature is seamless, with the ability to hop back into a previous session as if it had never been left.

    This explains, then, why some have reported File History, was gone from that accidental Build release.

    They're making some major changes to it, and putting it on steroids

    I hope there's more to Timeline than I'm picking up on so far. But it sounds very much like the doorman who does something for you that you could very quickly and almost effortlessly do for yourself.
