Preparation:

• Have "citrus completed" project open in Brackets and quit.
• Duplicate index.html page from that project folder and call it index2.html.
• Also duplicate desktop.css under the css folder and name it desktop2.css.
• Launch Brackets and open index2.html and update href attribute in link tag by replacing "css/citrus_mq.css" with "css/desktop2.css".
• Open desktop2.css and change the background color to something else so that you can see the color change in Chrome when switching html file in Brackets.
• Save and close desktop2.css. Make sure that you only have index.html and index2.html in your working set. (ie. no css files in the working set.)

Actual steps:

1. Shutdown Chrome if it is open.
2. Start Live Preview
3. Switch back to Brackets and press Ctrl+Tab to switch to the other html file in the working set. You can also use mouse click on the other html file, but keyboard shortcut is easier to reproduce the issue.
4. Repeat step 3 if you see Chrome loads the other html file.

Result: Chrome closes and you get a prompt in Brackets asking you to relaunch Chrome.

I can only reproduce it on Windows, but it is the same timing issue as #2858. So it is possible to reproduce it on Mac as well. Note that pull request #2865 does not fix this issue. In fact, it makes this issue easier to reproduce.

I think this is a duplicate of adobe/brackets#1704

This is in sprint 22 as part of the RESEARCH: Live Development Robustness card. No need to add to the bug card. Reassigning to@iwehrman.

This should be fixed by pull #3142, and I can't reproduce it on Mac.
