Accidentally Closed Browser: Recover?

Postby Fozzer » Fri May 23, 2008 4:05 am

Whey-up, Chums!... :)...!

You know what 'appens....

You spend hours and hours  browsing around different Sites, typing out endless replies to everything you come across....etc...etc....

..and low, and behold, you accidentally CLOSE the "VERY IMPORTANT BROWSER SITE" you were just visiting...Aaaggggghhhh...I want to die!... :o....!

(Typical example:...A LONG reply on this Forum)... :'(...!

Amongst a few Firefox tips I read, the cure is to "CTRL+SHIFT +T" to recover that last Closed Browser(s)....

...doesn't work.... :'(...!

Does anyone know of a way of recovering, and scrolling through, the latest Browser "History" which we have just viewed, and accidentally, (or otherwise), closed?

...a Keyboard Shortcut?

Please save my life... :-*...Chocolate Cookies offered!.... :)...!

Paul....Foxes on Fire.... 8-)...!

Hi Paul. From what I can make out Ctrl + Shift + T will recover the most recently closed tab. This would only work if you have more than one tab open. I don't think it works with browser windows. I'm not sure if this would rescue your long reply. :-/
