It should, but if you are running one of the newer versions of Mac OS and a slightly out-of-date version of Chimera then it might not. It would help us if you could upgrade to the 1.7 release candidate, and after a crash it should ask you to submit a bug report. Having that report will help a lot in letting us track down the problem.</div><div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div>Hope someone has some suggestions and can help me.</div></blockquote><br></div><div>Yes, you can prevent Chimera from trying to start the browser in the previous directory. Open Preferences (Favorites->Preferences) and in the "General" category change "Open dialog starts in directory from last session" to "false". If you want later sessions of Chimera also to do that, then click "Save". The Open/Save dialog should no longer try to go to your old/bad directory/path.</div><div><br></div><div>--Eric</div><br><div>
