Tab Session Manager auto-save stopped working on Google Chrome on Windows

[echawkes]

Short description

I've been using Tab Session Manager to auto-save my tabs for years. Recently, it stopped working.

Steps to reproduce

1. Start browser with clean profile
2. Install Tab Session Manager

Expected result

Actual result

I recently enabled Debug logging on the settings page. Where can I find the log?

I spent some time trying to follow the directions in
https://github.com/sienori/Tab-Session-Manager/wiki/Q&A-How-to-use-debug-mode
but Chrome seems to have changed their UI.

I eventually found something that looks like an error, so I took a screenshot

I got the screenshot from the console pane on
chrome-extension://iaiomicjabeggjcfkbimgmglanimpnae/options/index.html#settings

Additional context

On October 6 or 7, Dell sent me a message about needing to update my BIOS, so I went to the Dell Virtual Assist page, and updated the BIOS and all my drivers. Then, I rebooted, which caused Chrome to update to the latest version. My problems started soon after that.

The last session that was regularly auto-saved was 2024-10-07 19.17.26 which is almost 7 days ago.
I have it set to save every 15 minutes. Looking at the list of sessions saved, that seemed to work well right up until Oct 7, but it doesn't any more.
I have 630 sessions saved. I have it configured to keep the last 1000 sessions.

I was able to manually save a session using the tab session manager page in the browser - at the bottom of the page where my sessions are displayed. That still works. Also, I can still restore from old sessions.

Same here, on Edge and Maxthon

Just wanted to chime in that this also is happening to me on Chrome/Windows. My sessions were auto-saving up until Oct 16th sometime.

"Save the session when exiting browser" stopped working recently on Firefox (currently on 131.0.3)
