For example, if you were to open up the Microsoft Edge browser and then try to reopen a tab that you closed earlier by accident, it won’t work if you try doing the same thing that you do from Google Chrome.Īccording to StatCounter-a direct competitor to Google Analytics that allows websites to track stats such as what web browsers people are using-as of 2017, roughly 58% of desktop users are browsing websites using the Google Chrome browser. Given that web browsers coming from different companies have to offer users a distinctive experience, there are differences in the steps required to reopen tabs in browsers. If that’s something that you’ve pondered before you would be right: there is a way that you can get back those same tabs, so you don’t have to go around and find them again. Then you stop and think to yourself, maybe there’s a way that you could get all of those tabs back open again, but you just don’t know how it’s done. Upon opening up the browser again, you begin to realize how big of a deal that accidental click on the “X” really was as you plan your way around opening those tabs that you had open as you were surfing the web.
And then before you know it, you’ve accidentally closed the web browser. It happens to the best of us: we lose focus for a split second, or the environment around us causes us to panic and temporarily lose our minds.
