Yes, I do. Currently set on Startup to open the New Tab page.

@Perdita,
Do you have any extensions installed in the browser at this time? Can you also tell me if you have any data set to be deleted “on exit” in Settings --> History --> Clear browsing data --> [On exit]?

#5

About 19 extensions installed at the moment, on exit isn’t set to clear any data

@Perdita,
I would wager that one of those extensions is causing this behavior. You can test this a couple of ways (I suggest both):

  1. Create a new, temporary browser profile and test the behavior and see whether or not it respects the option selected.
  2. Disabling all the extensions then, if the issue is resolved, re-enable them one at a time until you find the offending extension.
