Save open tabs to current tab session on exit

I run two instance of multicommander with these commands

multicommander.exe /INSTANCE=test
multicommander.exe /INSTANCE=test2

Then I close both windows. Then I run both commands again. But the multicommander windows that was run with /INSTANCE=test2 does not retain its tab list, instead it opens the same tab list as the first instance that was run with /INSTANCE=test.

/INSTANCE do not have anything do to with tabsession..  what it does is to save all configuration under its own instance name.
So using instance instead would be an option instead of using tabsessions

No not automatic.

I the idea with tabsession it that you want the same setup when ever you start the a tab session.
So for them to be save on exists feels strange. Feel like you trying to solve a problem the wrong way.
I think separate configurations for different instances of MC is a better way to go

char101:
Thanks, but using separate configurations pose another problem that I need to sync all other configuration between the installations. What I want is just to persist the open tabs, but since I open a lot of tabs (says 50-100 tabs) I want to split them into different windows and have those windows open/close independently. If this is not possible in multicommander I guess I can use autohotkey to automate it somehow.
