Hey All!

I’ve just lost 5 groups and 60 tabs of research- it is a lot of work so your helo would be great!
Q1. How can I restore my groups?
Q2. How can i avoid this in future- do I have to use bookmarks?
Thank you

Hello @Ben1969 , thank you for reaching us out. Could you please provide us with more information? What kind of device and OS do you have? If on Android mobile you can keep your tabs or group of tabs open. If you want to save them permanently also you can back up them as bookmarks so in case the Browser crashes or restarts you will keep them handy. Hope it helps. Regards.

## Description
Last session (open tabs) was lost after a regular reboot; unabl… e to restore that session
## Steps to Reproduce
Can not reproduce at this point
## Brave version (brave://version info)
Version 0.63.55 Chromium: 74.0.3729.131 (Official Build) (64-bit)
## Version/Channel Information:
current release
I'm sure this is a known issue but I wasn't able to figure out how to fix this myself.
I'm aware that there are session files stored both in the main directory, as well as the session storage folder (AppData\Local\BraveSoftware\Brave-Browser\User Data), however I'm not sure what to do with those files.
Firefox allows to rename those backup files and replace them with the flawed session, but this doesn't seem to work in this case (respectively not sure what I'm doing wrong).
I have old session files (.ldb) from last night that should contain my open tabs (afaik) but what do I do with them?
The sync function doesn't help because the other device was also updated to a brandnew session :(
Using the browser history is one way to "fix" this (quite tedious task tbh); copy/pasting a single file might be a bit more easier.
Hope it helps. Regards.
