Xfce doesn't warn about unclosed files

Xfce 4.8.0.3, installed in Debian 7 Wheezy, at shutdown/poweroff/reboot asks the user if he wants to save unsaved files created using Gedit, Libreoffice Writer, etc.

In Xfce4 (4.10.1) installed in Debian 8 Jessie, and in Xfce (4.12.3) installed in Debian 9 Stretch, when doing shutdown/poweroff/reboot does not ask the user if he wants to save unsaved files. The unsaved files are lost.

How can I enable a warning to save unsaved files?

Thanks

Re: Xfce doesn't warn about unclosed files

Hello and welcome.

Xfce doesn't currently warn to save files. I don't recall why it was removed. There is this old bug report.

Have a read through this thread for a way to re-add this functionality through scripts.
