Subject: question about prince and --restore

I am running john_jumbo_2025_winX64_1_JtR.7z

I ran john with prince:
john.exe --fork=14 --format=NT --verbosity=2 --prince <my-password-list>

It was producing a fair number of found hashes.
I needed to reboot my computer.

I restarted john:
john.exe --restore

It has now been 24 hours, and I have not found any more hashes.

Here is the exact output when I did the restore:
john.exe --restore
Loaded 219418813 password hashes with no different salts (NT [MD4 
256/256 AVX2 8x3])
Cracked 5724244 password hashes (are in john.pot), use "--show"
Remaining 213694569 password hashes with no different salts
Node numbers 1-14 of 14 (fork)

Is there an issue with prince and restore? I don't want to start it from 
scratch.
