Sean Lynch (ID: 000000d368372040) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 04/03/2021 Thank you very much for creating and sharing this extension Rafale. It's been particularly helpful for me :) When google suspended "The Great Suspender" and, harrumph, expelled it from the Chrome Web Store my Chrome session consisted of 22 Chrome browser instances containing a total of 293 tabs. (Think of a large ring binder with each browser instance representing a section of the binder.). I just installed "The GREAT Desuspender" (TGD), restored the 22 window session with my session manager, ran TGD and 159 innocent tabs linked to various video and live feeds orphaned by GoogleNanny were restored in just a few seconds. The remaining 134 (static content) tabs that hadn't been suspended remain intact.
