Description of the issue: “The continue where you left off” feature does not work if I close the browser Cmd+W on Mac. It only works with Cmd+Q. Only for MacOS. How can this issue be reproduced?
Open 2 tabs
2a. Hit Close (the red button on top right corner) or Cmd+W
2b. Quite by pressing Cmd+Q
Reopen
Expected result:
2a: tabs should reappear but they don’t.
2b: tabs should reappear and they DID!
Brave Version( check About Brave): 1.66
Additional Information: On next updates, can the browser behave such that both methods 2a and 2b work as 2b.
Hi, thank you for your reply.
I actually have that box unchecked.
In any case, closing the browser with Cmd+Q works, so I just have to adjust my routine. I confirmed this by testing it in Edge and Safari, and they behaved the same way as Brave. The browser only reopens the last tabs when I close it with Cmd+Q and then reopen it.
Yeah this is a bit of a semantic issue. On macOS, “closing” the browser — that is, using the red x at the top-left of the browser window — the application process itself does not close (same with other apps on macOS). This only happens when you Quit the browser which closes the app and kills the process.
As opposed to Windows and macOS systems, where clicking the x closes the app and kills the process.
