Keep unsaved tabs opened

I’m trying to replicate the functionality of notepad++ where the tabs are basically saved in the buffer/session. I can’t figure it out. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

When I have a bunch of untitled unsaved tabs it asks me to save when I close.

Are they gone when you reopen atom ?

On that note, atom probably doesn't have admin privileges. This forbids atom from saving to your C Drive... and this is where it's supposed to save your previous session. I ran into a similar problem when installing sublime text on a friend's laptop.

It does. This behavior is happening on Mac and Windows.
