To do this from a command prompt, use one of the following:Ĭ:\Users\ \AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe -restore-last-sessionĬ:\Documents and Settings\ \Application Data\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe -restore-last-session I do this enough that I went ahead and made a Restore Session shortcut on my desktop that sits next to my regular Google Chrome shortcut.
