Restart explorer.exe and restore windows

I wrote a simple batch script that kills explorer.exe and then start it again. Its a common operation that I need for the Windows client software I'm developing.

The negative side effect is that any opened explorer window is closed and I need to manually open it up.

I want to add some pre and post operation to my script that will restore the opened Windows.

Best case would be if we could keep the commands in the form of a batch script, though I suppose it would be much simpler to implement using C#.
