If you have been using the mobile version of Chrome browser for a while, you might know that the mobile browser keeps tabs open in it for several days until you close them manually.

However, the same thing doesn’t happen on the desktop version of the Chrome browser. As soon as you close the Chrome desktop browser, all your opened tabs will be closed. When you reopen the browser, you will be presented with the default start page.

The same thing goes for other web browsers, including Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, etc. Although desktop web browsers were meant to suspend all opened tabs as you close the browser, you can modify this function and can force a web browser to automatically re-open the tabs you had open before.
