Stop Intellij opening all projects

What

IntelliJ by default opens all previous windows you've had open. This can cause issues if your laptop is already struggling for resources and then opens 20 windows

How

Edit the below file

Note: You will need to press tab for the Version number at the end.

nano ~/Library/Application Support/JetBrains/IntelliJIdea<version>/options

Add the reopenLastProject

<application>
  <component name="GeneralSettings">
    <option name="confirmOpenNewProject2" value="0" />
+   <option name="reopenLastProject" value="false" />
  </component>
  <component name="Registry">
    <entry key="moved.to.new.ui" value="true" source="SYSTEM" />
    <entry key="ide.experimental.ui" value="true" source="SYSTEM" />
  </component>
</application>
