Because you said so in System Preferences.
- whatever1 5y agoI dont see why this option should exist in the first place. Let alone being the system default. edit: Is there an option now in the MacOS Big Sur to enable this? I have a 3rd party app to achieve so.
- Torwald 5y agoTo save loading/startup time. Also has to do with oldschool Macintosh usability, which is a important feature that veteran Mac users want to have.
- noptd 5y agoOr more accurately, because you didn't say otherwise in the System Preferences.
- whatever1 5y agoI dont see in Big Sur any system-wide option to close an app after closing the last window. There is only the opposite: "Set all app windows to close when quitting apps" I currently use a 3rd party app to close for me apps when I close all of their windows.
