Google Chrome "Continue where you left off" does not continue where I left

Solution 1:

There have been in the past numerous complaints about this behavior, expressed in bugs issues #128523 and #110324.

These bug reports are not new, but they contain many workarounds that posters in these threads said have fixed this problem. Below is the list of these workarounds :

• versify if chrome://flags/#enable-fast-unload is set to Disabled.

• Locate the Google Hangouts extension and disable it in Chrome menu -> More Tools -> Extensions. If the problem was solved, you may reinstall Hangouts from the Play Store.

• Disable Google Print

• Try to use the extensions Continue where you left off or TabCloud.

• Uninstall and re-install Chrome

Solution 2:

Try the following steps:

1) Update Chrome, if update available (obviously).

2) If you are using any third party software to clean temp files, then white- list Google Chrome from that. Some of these softwares remove files which are important for such features (Continue where you left off).

3) You should also try:

• Firstly, switch to 'Open the new Tab page' option, refresh Setting page, close Chrome (completely).
• Now start Chrome again and switch back to 'Continue where you left off', refresh Settings page, without opening other tabs close Chrome (again completely).

Now test if 'Continue where you left off' is working or not.

If no suggestions work (even from others) then:

a) Copy your profile from 'C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data'.

It will be 'Default' if you only have one profile, otherwise it may be 'Default', 'Profile 1', Profile 2', etc. (Remember to copy all profiles)

b) Reinstall Chrome.

c) If only one Profile: Paste the copied profile by selecting 'Replace all files'

If had many profiles: Make same number of profiles, then paste the files.

This will work, without the loss of your bookmarks, history, etc.
