Description of the issue:
I updated Brave, via update & relaunch, while I had 20 or so tabs open (yes, I know…unwise). Brave appeared to download and update, but didn’t relaunch. When I then tried to start Brave manually, it started, I briefly saw a browser window and the message saying “Brave didn’t shut down correctly, would you like to restore…,” and then it immediately crashed. I rebooted my machine in the blind hope it’d fix it, but it didn’t. So, I decided to simply download Brave, install it, and try running it. It worked in getting Brave to run, and it still asked me if I wanted to restore my lost tabs, but nothing was restored and I had no recent history. Is there anything I can try to recover the recent history/tabs?

Additional Information:
I thought sync might help, but prior to this, I noticed sync wasn’t working well, and I don’t even see sync int he latest version (unless it moved and I simply didn’t find it yet).
