Windows Chrome Dev users also got this update, but each time I reopen the browser, it loads the pages I had open from the last session even though I have it configured to open only a blank page on startup. I have the Session Buddy extension installed and saving my last 10 sessions automatically if that matters. This did not happen to me with the .2 release, I believe.

I have the same problem as "googlele". In fact, it's quite an annoying bug. Makes me realize how much I actually love the tab page, haha. Windwos 7 x64 here.

I got the bug of the re-opening of the previous tabs that Jor mentioned. I figured out that after chrome is closed if I remove the files "current session" and "current tab" the problem is fixed! now ... how to do it automatically everytime while waiting for an official solution? I propose a batch file ;)

All downloads save as a .png file, and right clicking in the file manager doesn't do anything other than show the browser right-click menu, and therefore I can't rename it to show the correct file type.

Not happy about the removal of three finger gestures :(
I use it a lot for opening background tabs, pasting, etc...
Hope it returns in R18, my Chromebook feels odd without it.


P.S. This blog post is for Chrome OS, all you other people
Are cluttering it up with issues that don't pertain to it....

What happened to the three finger gesture? This is a necessity for opening links in a new tab! Please, please bring this back!!!

Facebook chat doesn't load for me in "normal" mode- odd.
I've disabled all my extensions, but FB Chat isn't showing up.

Windows 7, dev build.

The issue isnt' present on my XP machines, or on incognito, and my other FB account in another Chrome profile works fine.

I've cleared the cache!
