How to Reopen the Last Browsing Session in Google Chrome Browser

information   Information
This tutorial will show you how to set Google Chrome to open the New Tab page, your last browsing session, or a specific pages or set of pages on startup.

Note   Note
Chrome will also restore your browsing data and session cookies. Session cookies are the information that websites can use to keep you logged into sites. This can save you time from logging into your favorite sites every time after you’ve restarted Chrome. However, it’s recommended that you log out of websites when you’re using a public or shared computer.

If you would like Chrome to reopen all your pages from your last browsing session but discard session cookies and other site data, then go to Settings -> Show advanced settings -> Content settings (under Privacy) -> Keep local data only until I quit my browser.




Here's How:

1. In Chrome, click/tap on the Chrome menu Name:  Chrome_menu.png
Views: 524
Size:  1.6 KB button, and click/tap on Settings. (see screenshot below)

4. To Open the Last Browsing Session when Chrome Opens

5. To Open a Specific Page or set of Pages when Chrome Opens
A) Select (dot) Open a specific page or set of pages. (see screenshot below step 2)
