Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_12_0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/55.0.2883.87 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Open multiple tabs in chrome like facebook, yahoo, etc.
2. Close the complete window including all tabs
3. Open chrome again

What is the expected behavior?
All the tabs should be re-opened which were there at closedown.

What went wrong?
Getting a single tab with google search box.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 55.0.2883.87  Channel: stable
OS Version: OS X 10.12.0
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 23.0 r0

Same steps work on Windows 7. I use it every time.

[Mac Triage] How are you closing chrome? Clicking X or using Command+W merely closes the active Chrome window, and does not quite Chrome. In this case, the closed tabs won't be restored. This is the expected behavior. See https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=110324#c265.

But if you were to quit Chrome say by using Command+Q, the pages should be restored on starting Chrome the next time.

I am closing Chrome clicking X (Red color top left in Mac OSX).

To re-iterate, I am able to use this feature in Windows 7 without issues.

In that case, this is the expected behavior. Closing using X does not close the application on MacOS. You should be able to get the pages restored, if you quit Chrome using, say Cmd+Q.

Marking as WontFix for now. ccing shrike@ in case he thinks this behavior needs further review.

The application model on Windows is different than on the Mac, because of the Mac's menu bar. Closing all windows on the Mac does not quit the app (you can continue to work with Chrome through the menu bar). On Windows, each window essentially contains a menu bar, so closing all windows prevents access to the app's menus, making it impossible to continue using the app.

(It's strange - I remember going through the same steps and getting windows restored after closing them all, quitting, and restarting. I was going to file a bug on that, and will try to repro again when I have a chance.)
Thanks guys! It is working using Cmd+Q.
