How to restore OneTab list of tabs after computer crash? [closed]

Tags:

My computer crashed and I reinstall it over a new disk with chrome and the OneTab extension. However, I can't find where OneTab is storing my data under my former disk. I used this answer Where does Chrome store extensions? to go to the folder but there is no file dated close to the computer crash (and I used it on a daily basis).

I found it after using onetab and than searching for all files changed on that minute... So to restore one-tab from one computer to another you need to do this:

  • use one-tabe
  • search for C:\Users\XXXX\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Local Storage
  • find these 2 files:
    • chrome-extension_chphlpgkkbolifaimnlloiipkdnihall_0.localstorage-journal
    • chrome-extension_chphlpgkkbolifaimnlloiipkdnihall_0.localstorage
  • kill chrome so you will be able to back up 2 files in the directory
  • change the recent changed files extantion
  • copy the old 2 files from your backup to the folder
  • restart chrome
