STEPS TO REPRODUCE

2. Hover the mouse cursor over the (I) to the right of "When session was manually saved" under "Session Restore".
3.  A help popup will appear.

OBSERVED RESULT
The help popup says "A Save Session button will appear in the Application Launcher  menu. ....". But there is no such button anywhere in the Application Launcher menu.

The help popup text matches what is actually available in the Application Launcher menu.

You need to reboot the system to see it. Does that work for you?
Comment 2 Vadym Krevs 2025-01-18 10:09:05 UTC
Yes, rebooting does make it appear.
Comment 3 Vadym Krevs 2025-01-18 10:16:31 UTC
Weirdly enough, enabling session restore "When session was manually saved" and restarting, appears to break the "Log Out" functionality. Basically, click on "Log Out" and nothing happens. Switching session restore to "Last logout" and restarting makes "Log Out" work again ...
