Description of the Issue

Notepad++ lose the “session” (list of open files) when closing because windows is shutting down (or closing windows session) and there is an unsaved file

Steps to Reproduce the Issue

create a new tab, type some chars but do not save
logout the windows session
the logout is blocked by Notepad++ asking to save or not
at this point, Notepad++ has closed the other (not modified) files
choose to ignore the modifications
(notepad++ crashed for 32 bits version)
close windows session
open a new windows session
open Notepad++
Notepad++ opens on a blank new file
the list of open files is lost

Expected Behavior

List of open files should be preserved

Configuration

Windows 10
Double installation : 64 bits and 32 bits
Notepad++ 64 7.5.4
Notepad++ 32 7.5.3
Both version have the issue. In addition, 32 bits version crash when closing after I ignore the changes
