How to restart Chrome without losing open tabs

Imagine you are working on Chrome and opening a series of important tabs for work, but for some reason you have to close or restart the browser.

So is there any way to restart Chrome without losing open tabs?

The answer is yes. With a few little tricks, you can completely restart Chrome without fear of losing all the tabs you have open. Even if the tabs you closed belong to the previous session, Chrome still supports the ability to restore these tabs.

Restore opened tabs from the last Chrome session

You may not notice, but the history manager of webpages that you visit on Chrome will also keep your session history information in your browser (unless you delete your browsing history frequently. mine). As a result, all the tabs you have open during a session (usually the most recent one) can be properly restored when you restart Chrome, even after resetting your PC. mine.

To do this, just open Chrome, click the vertical three-dot menu icon in the top right corner of the screen. Next, click on the " History" (History), and then look in the ' tags recently closed ' (recently closed).

You should see a list of Chrome tabs that you recently closed. In the event that you suddenly turn off Chrome when there are multiple tabs open, you'll see a bunch of items like '4 tabs' or '12 tabs', (depending on how many you have open). Clicking that, all tabs that you closed in the previous session will be fully restored.

Create a shortcut to restart Chrome

To start up all the tabs you have open, you will need to open the bookmarks bar (bookmarks) by pressing the key combination Ctrl + Shift + B . When the bookmark bar appears just below the search bar, right-click an empty space and select the ' Add Page ' option.

When the ' Edit Bookmark ' window appears on the screen, give it a name, such as 'Restart Chrome', and in the URL field enter chrome: // restart . Once completed, click Save (Save). The page you opened when you created this bookmark entry will be saved with the rest of the bookmark entry.

To enable this feature, first, click the three dot menu icon along the top right corner of the screen click the Settings (Settings).
