To everybody leaving comments like “Look in recently closed tabs” or “Set your default to open pages that were open on the last session” or “Ctrl + Shift + T”:

that DOES NOT WORK every single time. If the system crashes it’s possible that none of the pre-set methods will work. This kind of advice is just insulting, like asking if you’ve restarted your computer. Yes: I’ve already tried that; I’m not stupid.

With current version of Chrome, if you always want your last session restored, this can be achieved by simply going into Options and at the top of the Basics panel select “Reopen the pages that were opened last”

I tried man, but it did not work. I don’t have the application data folder, or I have it but in another adress. thank you

“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.”

Uh… If you do it “enough,” then why don’t you just configure Chrome to restore your session upon startup by default?

And to the person who said “use FF,” FF is garbage. It’s bloated, slow and clunky.

The command prompt brings up a text based user interface similar to DOS. It has very little use for most computer users, but for geeks it’s a useful tool. See http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial76.html for more information.
