I’m really angry right now. I have a few windows open, all for different stuff. I usually have brave open my tabs from my previous sessions. But when opening the brave a few hours ago, instead of the windows I thought I’d see, I only saw around 12 open. And now no matter what I do, Brave won’t recognize the old session and tabs. I even used a data recovery software to get them back, and they still won’t work! I tried copy pasting the files to other chromium software, like I’ve tried before, but they won’t work either.

Is there anyway to at least read the data on the sessions and tabs?
