Omarchy Window Restore – Wiki

Never lose a closed window again on Omarchy.

Quick Start

# 1. Install via AUR
yay -S omarchy-window-restore-git

# 2. Activate for your user
omarchy-install-window-restore

That's it. Hyprland reloads automatically — no restart needed.

Shortcut Action
SUPER+W Close window (saved to history)
SUPER+R Restore last closed window
SUPER+SHIFT+R Restore all closed windows
SUPER+ALT+R Pick window to restore from a menu
SUPER+D Settings (mode, config, bug report)
SUPER+ALT+W Close permanently (no history)

Native Quickshell Plugin (Omarchy "Quattro")

On Quattro, SUPER+D/SUPER+ALT+R can open themed Quickshell overlays instead of the CLI menus above, plus a "Window Restore" entry in the Omarchy menu:

bash plugin/extras/install.sh

It's optional and layers on top of the base install — see plugin/README.md.
