How to get your tab groups back after Chrome crashes

How to get your tab groups back after Chrome crashes

Direct answer

Chrome’s “Restore pages?” prompt brings back tabs but frequently loses the group names and colours around them. If you took a Flocci Tabs snapshot, restoring it rebuilds the full layout — names, colours and order — regardless of what Chrome managed to recover on its own.

Step by step

  1. Reopen Chrome and accept the restore prompt to get the raw tabs back.
  2. Open the Flocci Tabs popup and restore your most recent snapshot to rebuild the group structure.
  3. If you had no snapshot, run AI Group All to rebuild sensible groups from what survived.
  4. Take a snapshot straight afterwards so the next crash is a thirty-second recovery.
