With "Close existing tabs" instead of "Open new window" everything works fine.

    It would be really great if this could be fixed for the next release.
    I need to switch between favorites quite often so this os quite annoying.

    @Hirogen Can you reproduce this issue or do you need more information from me?

    I'll try to get it into the 1.8.9 release, currently with corona at home... so might take 2-3 weeks before a new RC or the 1.8.9 is out

    I have seen the same problem in version 1.9.0.
    Would be great if it gets fixed!
    If it helps: this is how such session file looks (stripped the real paths though):

    <logexpert>
  <project>
    <members>
      <member fileName=".......path.lxp" />
      <member fileName=".......anotherpath.lxp" />
    </members>
  </project>
  <layout>
    <!--DockPanel configuration file. Author: Weifen Luo, all rights reserved.-->
<!--!!! AUTOMATICALLY GENERATED FILE. DO NOT MODIFY !!!-->
<DockPanel FormatVersion="1.0" DockLeftPortion="0.25" DockRightPortion="0.25" DockTopPortion="0.25" DockBottomPortion="0.25" ActiveDocumentPane="0" ActivePane="0">
  <Contents Count="2">
    <Content ID="0" PersistString="LogWindow#......path.log" AutoHidePortion="0.25" IsHidden="False" IsFloat="False" />
    <Content ID="1" PersistString="LogWindow#......antotherpath.log" AutoHidePortion="0.25" IsHidden="False" IsFloat="False" />

    </Pane>
    <Pane ID="1" DockState="Document" ActiveContent="1">
      <Contents Count="1">
        <Content ID="0" RefID="1" />
      </Contents>
    </Pane>
  </Panes>

    <DockWindow ID="0" DockState="Document" ZOrderIndex="1">
      <NestedPanes Count="2">
        <Pane ID="0" RefID="0" PrevPane="-1" Alignment="Right" Proportion="0.5" />
        <Pane ID="1" RefID="1" PrevPane="0" Alignment="Bottom" Proportion="0.5" />
      </NestedPanes>
    </DockWindow>
    <DockWindow ID="1" DockState="DockLeft" ZOrderIndex="3">
      <NestedPanes Count="0" />
    </DockWindow>
    <DockWindow ID="2" DockState="DockRight" ZOrderIndex="4">
      <NestedPanes Count="0" />
    </DockWindow>
    <DockWindow ID="3" DockState="DockTop" ZOrderIndex="5">
      <NestedPanes Count="0" />
    </DockWindow>
    <DockWindow ID="4" DockState="DockBottom" ZOrderIndex="6">
      <NestedPanes Count="0" />
    </DockWindow>
  </DockWindows>
  <FloatWindows Count="0" />
</DockPanel></layout>
</logexpert>

    And when choose "close existing tabs" then the windows for the two files are stacked in the upper left corner without real body visible:

    yeah this can happen, if the session log doesn't find the log file and gets confused, will try to fix in the .net 8 branch
