Version 9.4.15 and 9.4.16.9097 tabs not connected

Previous to 9.4.15 when I closed SSMS with open tabs they would open and connect next time I launched SSMS.  After installing 9.4.15 they do not connect.  I hoped that 9.4.16 resolved this but it has not.  So now I have to close any tabs that were open and re-open them in order to connect.  Is anyone else having this issue?

    I'm having the same issue.  Installed 9.4.16.9097  last week and now the tabs are not reconnecting.  In SSMS 2014 I added the connect button to the tool bar so I don't have to close and reopen the tab, but the biggest pain for me is I have tabs across multiple databases and the tool bar db select is slow.

    I Think if you have multiple Redgate packages installed and some are different version then they can conflict between eachother.

    Thanks,  To troubleshoot I removed all the packages and my tabs are now connecting.  Now I'll go back and incrementally reinstall with the latest versions.
  • Thank you.  So based on the replies I updated all of my other Redgate packages to the latest versions but SSMS tabs would still not reconnect tabs.  On a second launch of SSMS I was prompted with a SQL Prompt update that said I need .net version 4.7.2 installed so I installed that and now my tabs are reconnecting again.  When I check for updates it says I'm running the latest so I guess the update was just to inform me to update .net.  All good now.
