Bug Report

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes

• VS Code Version: 1.114.0 (Windows User Setup x64)
• OS Version: Windows 11

---

Description

VS Code keeps reopening previously opened tabs automatically after closing them, and I cannot stop this behavior.

Even after:

• Uninstalling VS Code
• Reinstalling the latest version (1.114.0)

The issue still persists.

---

Steps to Reproduce

1. Open VS Code
2. Open multiple files (tabs)
3. Close all tabs manually
4. Close VS Code
5. Reopen VS Code

---

Expected Behavior

All previously closed tabs should remain closed, and VS Code should open without restoring old tabs.

---

Actual Behavior

All previously opened tabs are restored automatically after reopening VS Code, even though they were closed before exiting.

---

Additional Notes

• The issue persists after reinstalling the latest version
• Happens every time VS Code is opened
• Occurs even when extensions are disabled
• Possibly related to workspace/session restore settings

---

Possible Related Settings

• window.restoreWindows
• workbench.editor.restoreViewState
• Session/workspace restore behavior
