I would also appreciate auto-saving my open tabs every so often. Or even a File > Save (Ctrl+S) What tends to happen with me is a few times a month my Nvidia GTX 980 Ti will hard crash the system in some games or even shadertoy. I will not have done a proper logout in days or weeks, so all the windows and tabs I've opened in Dolphin will revert to that days or weeks ago state. As a workaround, is there a way to kill the dolphin process so that it doesn't interpret it as closing the window, but in a way to save the state until next launch? I would be OK manually doing this every day or so. I tried Hamburger menu > More > File > Quit. But this just closed one of my two windows. Re-launching dolphin restored the one window that just closed, so don't think I can manually "save" multiple windows like this. Edit: this is still happening in 5.72, Dolphin shows the same previous tabs a lot. Meanwhile Kate works perfectly and always restores everything The same happens on Fedora 37 with latest updates and 2.72 Edit: I meant 5.27. This still happens on Specified App: dolphin-libs-23.04.1-1.fc38.x86_64 dolphin-23.04.1-1.fc38.x86_64 --- Software --- OS: Fedora Linux 38.20230609.0 (Kinoite) KDE Plasma: 5.27.5 KDE Frameworks: 5.106.0 Qt: 5.15.9 Kernel: 6.3.5-200.fc38.x86_64 Compositor: wayland ------------------------- To elaborate further: Dolphin seems to only save its session when closed safely. I often close it by shutting down the system (through the menu, which should use "shutdown -h now" and not "poweroff" for a safe shutdown). When starting it again, it loads the session I had when last opening it, it saved nothing. The feature request / fix I would think of is periodically saving the Dolphin session AND/OR fixing the session not being saved when not closed through the "x" button. I guess the dolphin session includes all windows. AT's request goes further, wanting to save all windows. I would be okay with just having the session for a single window saved. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 425627 *** |
