Resume Where You Left Off: Restore Your Last Position in Word

Author: Sun Last Modified: 2025-03-19

When reopening a Word document, it typically defaults to displaying the first page, regardless of where you left off during your previous session. This necessitates manually scrolling to your last working position, which can be time-consuming and may lead to uncertainty about where you last stopped. To address this, Kutools for Word offers a "Resume Reading" feature that automatically jumps your last editing position. Upon reopening the document, Kutools for Word will make you return to this position, streamlining your workflow and enhancing productivity.

How to use the Resume Reading feature:

Step 1. Launch the Word application

Step 2. Enable Resume Reading feature

Click Kutools Plus tab, and select the Resume Reading feature.

From then on, whenever you open a document, it will automatically take you to the position where you left off last time.
