[QUOTE="conceptualclarity, post: 562148, member: 11916"] I don't use multiple profiles. The last closing with my extensions and the discovery of loss of extension both occurred in the current session. When I brought up Slimjet, I saw a little window at the upper right that said it didn't shut down properly previously and do I want to recover the tabs from last time. (It does this most of the time, with the prior shutdown having been initiated by me clicking out the X at the upper right corner and having been orderly as far as I could tell.) I clicked yes on that window and expected to see my previous tabs come back up. I was surprised when they didn't and when I saw the extensions were gone. Another thing that happened is the printer icon and zoom icon and several others moved from the left of the URL bar to the right of it. Why LastPass survived the wipeout is puzzling. Unlike Maxthon and especially Firefox, I have not found Slimjet prone to crashes, i.e., shutdowns not initiated by me. I can't remember if there was one. The Slimjet Application Data has a folder within called "recovery" with a couple of numbered sub-folders within it. The Slimjet folder has an Extensions subfolder which contains a 1 KB file named "external_extensions.json". Oh my. I just opened it with Free File Viewer, and all it says is: There are a lot of other Slimjet files, but that's where I'd most expect my extensions to be hiding. [/QUOTE]
