Startup options

Unread post by Tomaso » 2018-05-27, 09:51

Startup options doesn't work ('Show my home page' and 'Show my windows and tabs from last time').
It shows a blank page regardlessly.

It works just fine.

I tried again with a clean profile..
Still doesn't work.
Perhaps the issue is somehow limited to the build that I'm using (Win64 Portable)?

EDIT:
Same issue with the Win32 Portable build.

Can't reproduce this issue either.

Happens for me with both Win32 and Win64 Portable builds.
Perhaps both this issue and the one that I reported with the Menu Bar are OS dependent?
I'm using Win8.1Pro.x64.
Got another computer with Win8.1 too..
I'll give things a try there, and see how it turns out.

Tried it on my other Win8.1 computer..
Freshly extracted Win32 and Win64 Portables.
But issues (Startup options issue and Menu Bar issue) takes hold there too.

Let me repeat my question: is there any errors in the browser console (Ctrl+Shift+J)?

Dev tools are missing in this alpha, so I tried using this:
https://addons.palemoon.org/addon/devtools/
There are no entries for the actions related to the bugs.

No, they are included. I missed Shift in the shortcut above, the right one is Ctrl+Shift+J, and devtools add-on is useless here.

Not in the Portables.
..or perhaps it's yet another OS dependent bug?

Honestly I can't even imagine what could lead to the absence of the devtools. Something is really wrong here.

Well, just created win8.1 pro vm box and have to confirm there is no devtools available:

It seems other issues are also OS dependent.

UDP: I filled an issue here.

The issue was solved and the fix will be included into the next unstable build.
