By default all the lists are saved to the appropriate directory specified in Fig. 5 (Running OptiMAS GUI section).
Note that the file tab_scores.txt will be overwritten to include the possibly added PMS and index columns.

Once the files are saved, you can close OptiMAS and reopen your analysis later by selecting the results folder previously saved and loading it (see below). On the menu bar Press File > Reload Data... > Select your previous folder > OK.
