Users like to open many tabs at the same time and pin them so that the next day they do not have to look for website addresses on the Internet again, enter logins and passwords for access. Thus, once again you can simply launch the browser and it will open all yesterday’s tabs.
But it also often happens that the web browser crashes or the user himself unpins and closes pages, and later regrets it.
Let’s look at how to quickly restore your Internet session in more detail.
Ways to open tabs
In cases of failure in modern browsers, the previous session is restored using software. The application asks about this when it first starts after a crash. In this case, you just need to confirm this action, and the program will do everything automatically.
But, if suddenly such a function does not start for some reason, the user can use one of the following methods:
- Right-click on the active tab and select Open Closed Tab from the drop-down context menu
- enter Settings, open Recently closed tabs, select the desired page from the list provided and click on it - the page will open in a new window
- select sites from history: go to Settings, open History in the drop-down menu. When a chronological list of all previous entries to pages on the Internet appears, you should select from it the pages of interest, which will open in new windows
- being in an open browser window, get a list of sites by pressing two Ctrl+H keys together on the keyboard, from which select the one you need
- find a lost address by pressing the three-key combination Ctrl + Shift + T on your keyboard in an open web browser window
First, you should turn on Ctrl with one finger and, while holding this button, hold down Shift with the second finger, and the English letter T (Russian E) with the third finger.
This combination of buttons will open the latest entries to Internet resources in the address bar. Then, using the mouse, select the required site from among them.
Microsoft Edge
In the Windows 10 browser, history is also called History. It’s easy to open it: click on the special icon in the upper right corner and select the desired section. The list of visited resources is also displayed by date.
You can delete the list by clicking on the “Clear Log” icon. The left menu asks you to select the type of data you want to delete. By the way, you can set a marker (shown by the arrow) and enable automatic deletion of history after closing the browser.
Note! Unlike the previous three browsers, Edge doesn't ask about the deletion period. By clicking "Clear", you get rid of all browsing history.
Keeping open tabs (Pin Tabs)
Browsers have the ability to pin or save any tab to your favorites list. When the appropriate actions are performed, the required address is added to a special place in the program and can be retrieved from there upon request.
This service is very helpful when the user regularly visits the same web resources, or has found a unique site that he is afraid of losing.
The section for saving your favorite web pages is called either Bookmarks or Favorites. It is designed to remember any number of addresses that are fixed there until the user himself deletes them.
Yandex browser
This service here is called Bookmarks Bar and can be found at the top of the program on the left (star icon).

Opera browser launch settings
To simplify your work in the browser when you need to open many different files, it is recommended to set an option in the browser settings that is responsible for launching previously opened tabs. Then, regardless of the situation when you yourself close the browser with a dozen running tabs or this happens during an emergency close, the next time you start Opera all your tabs will be in place.
To set the optimal settings for the Opera browser, follow these instructions:
- Open "Menu" and go to the section "Settings».
- Open the page down to the item “ Advanced ” and then “ At startup ”.
- Switch the radio button to "Open previously opened tabs».
There is no need to save anything; the setting will be applied automatically.
Note: the autosave tabs option only works for the last opened window. That is, if you have the necessary sites running in one window and you additionally open a new window in which there are no tabs, then when you close this window last, the next time the website browser will be launched without tabs.
In Mozilla Firefox
For this product the approaches are similar. As in the first case, just use hotkeys or open the Firefox menu and go to “Journal”. There you will find the item “Recently closed tabs”, in it you can view all the visited sites that you have visited recently. Just as in the case of Chrome, select the one you need and restore it by double-clicking. You can also go to the Firefox log using the same key combination that is used in Chrome.
Visual widgets on the scoreboard
Yandex Browser has a “Tableboard” on which visual bookmarks are saved. They change on their own, showing frequently visited sites. Therefore, if you forgot about a site and did not visit it for a long time, then it may well disappear from Tablo.
To avoid losing a visual bookmark, use the “Pin” option. Pinned bookmarks will not disappear anywhere and will be synchronized with your account.
