Delphi XE3 and higher not saving open IDE tabs on exit

I'm running win 7(64Bit) Delphi XE3,

When I open a project in my old Delphi XE, it would open all the forms I had opened when I saved the project last.

How can I make XE3 have the same action ?

Obviously a simple question, but I can't find the setting to save the layout in XE3.

You have to turn it on in Tools->Options->Environment Options. This is from XE3, but it's the same spot it's been in since Delphi 2 or 3:

XE3 Autosave Options

Just check the Project desktop item.

In Delphi 10 and 11, the option has been moved to Tools->Options->IDE->Saving and Desktop:

Delphi 10 and 11 autosave option

I think you need to set the "Project desktop" option in "Environment options" -> "Autosave options" (thats where the option is in D2010, but I think it hasn't changed for XE3).

UPDATE

OK, had a moment to check out the wiki - see the Environment Options topic.
