Problem/Bug with PWAs keeping Edge tabs open on relaunch

If you are still able to repro this in current canary builds of Edge, I'd love to dig in a bit. Can you give me really specific repro steps I can try on my machine?

Hello, thanks for the response,
I can't reproduce this issue anymore
now i'm on
Edge insider Version 79.0.301.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)
and Windows 10 fast ring build 18999
my Instagram and Spotify (both PWA) are open, when I close the Edge browser and reopen again, the NTP loads and the previously closed tabs won't come back anymore.
I think it's solved, at least in this build.
HotCakeX This isn't just an Edge issue. It was happening to me with Chrome before I switched. Mine wasn't Spotify but Google Hangouts. It's also happening with Edge but I just wanted to maybe help the Edge Team buy moving the issue up the chain a little bit. So anyway, yeah it's happening to me as well but the App is Google Hangouts. I suspect any app that you allow to run in the background will cause this behavior. Hope someone can figure out how to make it stop!

HotCakeX Now the problem is the other way around. I've noticed my tabs not restoring when I reopened edge, found out the culprit was an open pwa. So basically edge sees that pwa as the last open tab and therefore forgets about the other tabs you closed. This should be fixed in chromium as it isn't the way pwa's should behave . Pwa's shouldn't be seen as tabs.
