I guess you meant to say “tab”? which “certain” tab? does it happen with no plugins installed? https://www.sublimetext.com/docs/3/revert.html

This sort of sounds like sublime is closing on you when you close the last tab in a window. If that is in fact the case, there is a setting that controls that:

    // Set to true to close windows as soon as the last file is closed, unless
    // there's a folder open within the window.
    // On OS X, this value is overridden in the platform specific settings, so
    // you'll need to place this line in your user settings to override it.
    "close_windows_when_empty": false,

It defaults to false everywhere except on MacOS where it is turned on by default to keep with the MacOS UI interface guidelines. As the comment above mentions, you need to copy the line from the defaults into your own preferences to turn it off.
