Subject: bug#54331: 27.2; Closing frames loaded from desktop-read
Date: Fri, 11 Mar 2022 00:13:23 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87h785k5ro.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)

A very annoying issue with `desktop-save` and `desktop-read` that I'm encountering at the moment:

- I'm starting Emacs in `daemon-mode`, and then open a client frame via
  my WM shortcut for `emacsclient -c`. I do `desktop-read` and my saved desktop opens with the 10 or so frames I had saved.

- When I go to one of the frames with a buffer I'm no longer interested in, and do `C-x C-c`, I end up not just closing that particular frame, but **all 10 or so of the frames that were open**.

- The Emacs daemon is still running, and opening another client frame shows that the buffers haven't been killed, so nothing has been lost per se - it's just that the arrangement of all the frames I had is just ruined.

Any idea how to stop this behaviour (i.e. being able to just kill one frame from the saved configuration)? 


I have also played around with these settings

```
  (setq desktop-restore-frames t)
  (setq desktop-restore-in-current-display nil)
  (setq desktop-restore-forces-onscreen nil)

```

but the issue persists.
