Similar to all modern browsers, Chrome also quickly opens the closed tabs and Google just moved this option to the different menu of chrome 78. However, it is easy for finding this option in the options menu. We will show you how to reopen a closed window on Chrome.
Note: you will not be able to reopen the tabs in incognito mode because Chrome erases the information of these tabs as soon as you close them.
The option of Reopen Closed Tab in Chrome
- For reopening the closed tab in Chrome, you have to right-click on the empty space of the tab and then select “Reopen Closed Tab.”
- In case you have closed a window instead of a tab, then you will see the “Reopen Closed Window” option.
- This particular will open the newly closed tab. You have to repeat the process for reopening tabs as they have closed, through your history.
- By the single mouse button on a Mac, hold the Ctrl key then click rather than right-clicking.
Earlier, you just have to right-click a tab on the tab bar of Chrome and then select “Reopen Closed Tab.” Now the option is no longer present in the tab right-click context menu. You need to right-click on the empty area to find it.
