I am using v. 3.9.17 (the latest version) of MS for Windows and the "Always Load Last Viewed page" setting does not seem to work for me. The function works when escaping to the Setlists View, right-clicking to select the song, then using the 3-dot menu to pull it up. But even though the "Always Load Last Viewed page" option" setting appears to be selected in the Library Settings, selecting a song from the Library Window always brings me back to the first page. I need to be able to go directly from one song to a specific page in another during a gig. Thanks!

If you are using a setlist, tap "Load All" to be taken back to the last page you were viewing in the setlist. Things are currently a little weird if you are trying to load individual songs from a setlist to be taken back to the last page you viewed for that song within the setlist. If you load songs individually on the Songs tab, or if you disable Settings->Library Settings->Always Load Whole Setlist, then you can certainly tap individual songs to be taken back to the last viewed page for just that song. I am considering modifying the logic so that you can do this though - return to the last page viewed for a song within a setlist, even if that song wasn't the last the song you were viewing from within that setlist. This means that if you loaded the song separately from the setlist (meaning you loaded it on the Songs tab or on another group tab), it will also go back to that same page. I'm not sure if that's good or bad. Currently, the last viewed page is saved separately for setlists and songs loaded outside a setlist.

Agree this is strange functionality, if I'm in a setlist, click a song, go to a specific page, go back to set list, go into that song again, it should be on the page I left it on if "Always load last viewed page" is selected.
I think it's fine if I go to the same page if I view the song from the Songs tab or somewhere else. I generally am looking at only my parts, so generally I am going to want to look at the same pages regardless of how I access the song. You could perhaps have checkboxes and the option could be called "Load last viewed page when opening song from:" and have checkboxes for "Songs", "Setlists", "Collections", "Artists", "Albums", "Genres" so you could select which environment uses the "last viewed page" option, but that's probably overkill.
Also as mentioned in other threads, the ability to either mark a page as the default starting page of a score, or when creating a bookmark, have a "Open at this bookmark" checkbox, and mark that bookmark with a star in the bookmarks list, would be nice features.

I thought I had modified the logic for this, but it appears I didn't (or the changes were lost for some reason). I'll have to modify the code again so that the last viewed page works even if you tap individually on a song in a setlist and the whole setlist is loaded.
