Session Buddy does not always save the current session when I close Chrome. I've only noticed this recently. I've noticed it twice within the last week, but other days it saves the current session.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

I'm running on Windows...

32-&-64-bit Chrome
Dev-Chrome
Beta-Chrome

Session-Buddy saves a complete set of all open windows and tabs when I close any Chrome version from the Taskbar.  This means using the mouse to [Right-Click] the Chrome icon and choosing from the "Close Windows" context menu.

If I close Chrome from using the [X], the close button, in windows' upper right-hand corner, the session(s) will not be saved.

I believe this behavior is a feature not a bug.  Saving sessions using the Taskbar works even when multiple versions of Chrome are active.  

It could be useful to have an option to intercept all closings and save sessions with a confirmation dialog window.  My own opinion is this behavior would quickly become tiresome and I'd turn it off.

Try this: when closing Chrome, do so by selecting "Exit" in Chrome's menu.

That does seem to work better. 
Thanks.

....I've been using, at least within Win 7 & 8.1 the taskbar Chrome icon's [Right-Click] context menu of choices.  I choose [Close all windows] at the bottom of that list.  

I'm running these below on Desktop & ProtableApps.com portable versions on Windows & LINUX

32-&-64-bit Chrome
Dev-Chrome, developer versions
Beta-Chrom, feature pre-view versions

...too bad that Apps are not yet available for Android-LINUX

Time for Holidays & Christmas donations.
