first you start by CLAIMING

which sounds like TC crashed....
4 years later its the SYSTEM (aka OS) that crashes all the time:

WRONG!

4 years later you wrote about system crashes/hangs....
Then you contradict yourself:
avada wrote:You assume I didn't do anything to fix this, that's also wrong.
avada wrote: I just couldn't.
So did you fix your system or not?
avada wrote:You're seriously claiming restarting a program is anywhere near equivalent to crash recovery?
No, I have shown you a way which would save your "precious" tabs
(but you of course choose to ignore this because you dont care for a solution as
with tc9 you can now use even a keycombo with the savetabs-cmd.....)
because "crash recovery" is NOT a thing that is tcs business as thats not what it was created for.....

NO, thats a RESTART....

I agree with Sir_SiLvA, although he expressed his thoughts quite bluntly.
Yes because I dont sugar coat - sue me

Did you seriously
just compared TC to Word? *tripple-facepalm*
How about instead comparing it with irfanview and wanting it to save his ini file every 29 seconds?

you too like comparing citrones and apples, do you?....
As I started out:
So you DO want TC jump through HOOPS just because YOU cant fix your (proven to be [by you]) broken (and unfixable) system.
So instead of writing its ini-files like it is doing now (and has been for decades) just for you the system had to be changed.
So all inis are getting cached in tmp first and only be written later to their true destination which is NOT how handling inis work.
(and lets not even start about backward compability)

getting you to fix your system cause
#1 working an a system that ruins files anyway is kinda pointless
#2 its not TCs job to recover anything if the flaw is YOUR fault.
avada wrote:A bunch write their configuration or other data as soon as you change them. (typically ones that don't have it in an ini file.) Other's have explicit session recovery.
Wrong again! Ini based data is stored the moment you changed it.
avada wrote:Not sure you're right. Even so even then it would be less of a data loss.
Yes, he IS right cause he KNOWS what he is talking about and No, on the contrary it would even be a bigger loss as it could ruin your whole tc.ini and then ALL your settings would be lost......
Hacker wrote:Often it's simply not feasible.
then you shouldnt have files on the system nor work on it.
Hacker wrote:It looked best to me.
But you are arguing against a feature to mitigate system crashes on the off chance that it might not help in some cases, ignoring that it would help in all other cases. That does not make sense.
because wanting such thing from tc is simple ignorant.
if one is worried about his precious tabs: cm_ConfigSaveSettings
BOOM all saved (that even works with tc8)
(apart from the fact that wheres a will theres a way to fix crashes...)
to use your own BRILLIANT example Hacker:
you expect people to press strg+s when working on IMPORTANT stuff in word
so why not in tc?....
problem (that didnt even existed) solved
