Restart fully

Fully quit Claude Desktop (Cmd-Q / Quit from the menu, not just closing the window) and reopen it.

The important difference

Claude Desktop works differently from the CLI tools: there is no automatic recall or capture. Memory works through MCP tools that Claude chooses to call. If it never remembers anything on its own, that’s this design — not a broken install.
In practice:
  • Claude often checks memory on its own when it’s clearly relevant — but not reliably every message.
  • You can always steer it: “check my Atlaso memory first” or “remember this.”
  • For the fully automatic experience, use one of the CLI/IDE tools — see the setup overview.

Troubleshooting

  • Connector doesn’t appear after adding — fully quit from the menu and reopen; closing the window isn’t enough.
  • Never remembers on its own — expected, see above. Ask it to check memory.
Anything else: Troubleshooting.
