<div>&quot;restart&quot; is to do calculation using the things already done.</div>
<div>So it will read the geometry, charge, wfc, ... from the previous calculation.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>If there is no wfc file and you set &quot;restart&quot;, you must set also &quot;startingwfc=&#39;atomic&#39; &quot; .</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>I think it is ok to &quot;restart&quot; even if not scf, but maybe this is not very safe.</div>
