I am not sure if this is related to the bug, but opened terminal windows will also be lost :(

Does this still happen in the latest release? I'm not able to reproduce.
Check out #2276 for persisting terminals.

I was able to reproduce on the latest version.
Not sure if this is a bug or intended bug. Should code-server prompt me to open the workspace or automatically open it?
nhooyr commentedon Jan 20, 2021
Wait actually it worked this time for me? Hold on...
nhooyr commentedon Jan 20, 2021
Yea nvm I was confused, I tested and it works well.
@ntimo let us know if you can still reproduce on the latest release and I'll reopen.

Hi, This bug is very problematic and defeats the main purpose of anyone using code-server in first place. Any update on this?
jsjoeio commentedon Jan 3, 2022
@code-asher we fixed this in the upcoming release, right?
Actually, I don't know if we tested switching browsers 🤔 Should this work?

Great, we'll test when 4.0.1 comes out.
bugwheels94 commentedon Jan 17, 2022
I am pretty sure that I can still reproduce this bug in 4.0.1 too. Let me know if screen record is needed
jsjoeio commentedon Jan 18, 2022
@bugwheels94 that would be very helpful!

I still have this problem in the latest version 4.11.0. I have a workspace open with terminal windows etc., when I try to access in another browser and the windows/terminals are no longer there.
