3.2.6.3 Preventing File Restore

By default, POV-Ray for Windows will attempt to re-load the files you had open in the editor when you last exited the program. If this causes a problem (e.g. maybe one of the files is very large and you don't want it re-loaded), you can add the '/NR' (or '/NORESTORE') option to the POV-Ray for Windows command line. In this case POVWIN will flush the list of files you had opened.
