Yes, confirmed. Happens to me as well. Very annoying, I lost my work. Pretty bad.

I also confirm the bug. I lost my work too, luckily they were not important documents. I've noticed that if you enable the option of backup and restore the session, the program closes anyway, but when it reopens the session is restored as it should be. I attach a short video of the bug. I look forward to a resolution of the problem.

It's more like a Windows issue to me. I will keep it in mind to see if I can figure out the reason here.

Not only after being minimized, it also gets closed after switching Windows virtual desktops back and forth. Like: edit stuff in Notepads, win+ctrl+right to go to another desktop, do stuff there, win+ctrl+left to go back to the v.d. with notepads, but.. it is closed, the results of work are lost.

For me, this happens on Windows 10 Pro, 21H2 (19044.1706) with Notepads 1.4.8.0.

This is a pity, would love to use Notepads more, but this is a blocker for me.

PS this may be helpful for fixing: 1, 2

This bug never got fixed, huh? It's been driving me crazy for a while now and questioning my sanity as to whether I closed the file or not.

Considering this is a known issue since 2020, I think this is the end for Notepads, at least for me.
