I just experienced this issue with Brave for Android. Brave team should re-check how they check whether another session is running and also not just delete an older set of Session & Tab files upon start. Maybe it's the root cause for many others. Somehow, two main processes were started (even though there should be only one main process) and that caused the issue in my case. This is one way of how you lose all your tabs. Once the Brave process is started, it will pick the newest set of Tabs and Session files and delete the older ones. In my backup, I saw the old set of files (and a new one which was only few kb in size) and just replaced the new ones with those old ones from the backup. I believe the issue is that somehow a second main Brave process was started when I double-clicked that file earlier in the day and this action caused a new set of Session & Tab files to be created. On macOS, these files are in ~/Library/Application Support/BraveSoftware/Brave-Browser/Default/Sessions/ folder.Īfter the reboot and after starting Brave, I've noticed that only one tab was open and it had some image from the local disk open. Periodically copy these files somewhere or just write a script to back it up. If you don't have a whole-FS backup, make sure you backup this folder: ~/.config/BraveSoftware/Brave-Browser/Default/Sessions/ It should contain 4 (or more?) files of the type Session_ and Tabs_. I think I know what the bug was in this case. I lost all the tabs but was able to recover them because I backed up before rebooting. I just experienced this issue with Brave for Linux. 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. The sync function doesn't help because the other device was also updated to a brandnew session :( I have old session files (.ldb) from last night that should contain my open tabs (afaik) but what do I do with them? 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.įirefox 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).
