Your Chrome browser history also keeps track of recently closed tabs.

Going through the hamburger menu also has a built-in list of Recently Closed tabs, which you can select to reopen.

Tab search shows you a list of all the tabs you currently have open, and another list of your recently closed tabs.

If you've got a Chrome window opened -- or if the app is pinned in your taskbar -- right-click the icon from the taskbar and you'll see a short list of links: Most visited and Recently closed.

By toggling this feature on, every time you open Chrome, the browser will automatically reopen the tabs you had open in your previous session.

The Ctrl+Shift+T keyboard shortcut will work in other browsers, too (as well as right-clicking the tab bar and selecting Reopen closed tab).

For both Firefox and Microsoft Edge, you can also go through your browser history to find and reopen a tab you accidentally closed.

Firefox has a dedicated sub-menu under History called Recently closed tabs.

Microsoft Edge has a tabbed History menu for All, Recently closed and Tabs from other devices

In Opera, if you have the sidebar enabled -- and if History is one of the elements you've elected to include in the sidebar -- clicking the History icon from the sidebar will also pull up a list of recently closed tabs

In Microsoft Edge, go to Settings > Start, home, and new tabs and under When Edge starts, select open tabs from the previous session
