## Sessions
Sessions are a way to save and restore states of work. A session stores the settings and contexts. All the session files are located in the `${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/nnn/sessions` directory by the session name.
Sessions are a way to save and restore states of work. A session stores the settings and contexts.
Sessions can be loaded dynamically at runtime or with a [program option](https://github.com/jarun/nnn/wiki/Usage#program-options).
Notes:
1. When a session is loaded dynamically, the last working session is saved automatically to a dedicated -- "last session" -- session file. The "last session" is also used in persistent session mode.
2. Listing input stream has a higher priority to session options (`-s`/`-S`). Sessions can be loaded explicitly at runtime. Session option _restore_ would restore the persistent session at runtime.

3. The persistent session option is global. If it is used, the last active session will be updated with the final state at program quit.
