Severity: normal

*** Please type your report below this line ***

Hi all,
Epiphany-browser does not remember any open tabs. To reproduce this :-

a. Click on a shortcut of Epiphany or click on Epiphany through
GNOME/menu > Internet > Epiphany

b. Open few tabs.

c. Close tabs.

d. Open through shortcut again, the last session/tabs opened are not there.

I saw the Preferences i.e. Edit > Preferences as well as Tools >
Extensions neither of them helps/ed.

e. I also tried to figure out using gconf-editor > /apps/epiphany but
was unable to see any values worth changing.

This makes it harder to use/make Epiphany my primary browser to use.

Indeed. If you want to keep the tabs open, don’t close the browser.
They will come back if you save the session and restart it, but epiphany
cannot know, when you close a window, wheter you actually wanted to
remember the open tabs or you just wanted to close them.
