This problem is very easily solved by another method. The fact is that in every browser (more or less new version) there is Hotkeys.

Later I switched to Opera 23 and Google Chrome . Both of these browsers have the same Chronium-based engine. What was my disappointment when, after pressing the Ctrl + Z keys, it did not bring any result. The first thought was delete nafig". But the mind took over. I went into the instructions and found that for these browsers there is a function " open last closed tab". To do this, you need to use a combination Ctrl+Shift+T .
Yes, at first it was very inconvenient, more than once I thought about returning to Opera 12, which I liked much more. And not only due to the reason described in this article. It is much more convenient than its later versions.
But, time passed, and I got used to it. Now I already use these hotkeys automatically when I accidentally close the desired browser tab. I guess for other browsers Mozilla Firefox etc. this diagram works just as well.

As you can see, there is nothing complicated. By the way, I will show you another convenient combination of buttons on the keyboard, which also works in the three above software products.

To restore accidentally closed tabs one by one, there is a key combination Ctrl + Shift + T. This combination works in absolutely all browsers discussed in this article.
Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome and Yandex Browser support the restoration of closed tabs even after the browser is closed. For example, the user closed the tab and closed the browser, and after some time, having opened the browser, he needed to restore the last closed tab of the previous session. In this case, you should use the key combination Ctrl + Shift + T.
This action does not apply to the following browsers: Opera, Internet Explorer, and Microsoft Edge. After closing listed browsers and then opening them, it will be impossible to restore the tabs of the previous session using the keyboard shortcut.
How to restore pages using browser add-ons and extensions
Another way to restore closed tabs is to install the necessary add-ons to the browser, which will be discussed now.
SimpleUndoClose for Opera and Yandex.Browser
This extension is designed for Opera browser, and for Yandex Browser. It looks like a button with a rounded arrow, clicking on which a list of closed tabs drops out. At the bottom of this list is a search bar, with its help you can find the desired tab by keyword or phrase. Before the search bar itself, there is a “Clear” button, by clicking on it, the entire history of previously closed tabs is deleted.

In Mozilla Firefox
For Mozilla Firefox, an add-on called "Closed Tabs Menu" has been developed. With it, you can restore previously closed pages. In terms of functionality, this add-on is similar to the “SimpleUndoClose” extension for Opera and Yandex browsers.
By clicking on the corresponding button installed in the add-on browser, a list of previously closed tabs opens. At the bottom of the list is the inscription "Clear history", with which the entire history of previously closed pages is deleted.

I think it’s now clear how you can restore an accidentally closed tab in Yandex browser, and what needs to be done so that it saves all your open tabs at the time of closing.

A few years ago, we had to suffer and restore sessions manually. Browser developers have heeded the voices of dejected users, now in most cases, browsers themselves cope with the problem and restore tabs. Where to look for them?
Chrome
In Chrome, closed tabs can be restored one at a time using the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Shift + T.
The list of tabs that you closed recently is in the settings menu. Select "History" → "Recently closed". The browser will offer to open several tabs at once that have been closed.
It was possible to restore the session using the Last Session file and renaming it to Current Session. Unfortunately, this method no longer works, so with closed and untraceable Chrome browser tabs will have to say goodbye.
You can, of course, open the history file in Notepad and sort all the links. But this is shamanism, subject to specialists, not ordinary users. Exit - extensions. An example is given at the end of the article for each of the browsers.
Firefox
The browser's home page itself, by default, offers to restore the previous session. The corresponding button is located in the lower right corner, you only need to press it.
If as home page If you do not have Firefox installed by default, you can restore closed tabs in the menu "Journal" → "Restore previous session".
The browser also has a session recovery page that appears in the window after the program crashes. The page can be called manually, for this you need to type in the browser line about:sessionrestore. Firefox will offer to restore the tabs of the previous session or start a new one.
Alas, if these events did not help, then most likely it will not work to restore the tabs: they were not recorded in history.
There are still chances, but for this you will have to arm yourself with patience, knowledge, or even a tambourine. That is, try to recover data from files with information about the current session. For this you need:
The problem is that this may not work either. Just bad luck. For insurance, it is better to use the already mentioned extensions.
Opera
Working with runaway tabs in Opera is similar to working in Chrome. This is a Ctrl + Shift + T hotkey combination that saves tabs, and work with recently closed tabs in a special menu.
If the menu of recently closed tabs does not help, you will have to rummage through the history and install extensions for the future.
Extensions to help
To keep users out of trouble, special add-ons have been invented for working with tabs that solve most problems with losses and sudden closing of browser windows.
