How can I get Edge to restore all the tabs I had open last session?

Yeah, this has happened to me enough times I think I'm just done with microsoft edge. Thanks for nothing, edge!!

hi, no, the history window is empty, like it's auto deleted it when i last shut down grrrr!
How do i set the program to NOT auto delete AND open my previous tabs when restarting Edge please?

Hi there is no "When Microsoft Edge starts" in my Edge settings

In this History "Recently closed", it seems that there are 2 types of entries in the list.

1. Individual Page visits
2. Browser Window Instances that have a triangle to the left of their name

(in this screenshot, Edge Windows are yellow-highlighted)

So in my case, after rebooting without closing my 3 Open, and named, Edge windows, on restarting Edge, it only opened 2 of my windows. However I found the 3rd one in this list, and was able to right-click Open in New Window, and there were all my tabs.

A recommendation for Microsoft is that

1. Notice that these Window entries in History List are not retaining the "NAME" of the window I assigned, they are named like one of the tabs. So it makes it hard to recognize and find the previously open window.
2. Consider adding a feature such that whenever a user assigns a NAME to an Edge Window, that Edge persists that name in it's local storage, along with all of the child tabs. Then instead of finding it in History, there could be a place in the UI to maintain your list of Named Edge Windows.

A Name can be assigned by right-click the Edge title bar and choosing "Name window..."

Hi,

(I may have put this new question in the wrong place. This NOT a response to anything else.)

No offence intended, but Microsoft is keen to assure us, that Edge is at least as good as Chrome if not better. My experience is not consistent with that. Sometimes "wonderful" new features that the user does not actually want, can be a terrible nuisance.

In the last 24 hours - I opened a large number of tabs, in a single session of Edge (still continuing - because I just left the computer in "sleep" since then).

Then, when I tried to move one of the tabs across to the left end of the row (at the top of the screen) like I can in Chrome - I unexpectedly combined it with another tab, to form a "folder". Worse than that - all I could then see, in the Edge window (and this is still the case) is a couple of tabs that are now in this "group". The many other tabs that I have (or had) open, are nowhere to be seen. And then, after I tried clicking in the strange square, up at the top on the right (near the red X) I unexpectedly got a split screen. And I can't get back to a single screen (this is inside the Edge window). Most of all, of course, I want all my tabs restored.

Can you help, please? Alan
