Moderators Andavari Posted March 11, 2013 Moderators Share Posted March 11, 2013 You need to state what Windows operating system you're using (i.e.; XP, Vista, 7, 8, etc,) in order for someone to know where the locations will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winapp2.ini Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 (edited) Assuming you're on windows, you can restore it using Recuva. The files will have been in %LocalAppData%\Google\Chrome\User Data\(Your user or Default)\ The history files are Archived History, Archived History-Journal, Current Session, Current Tabs, History, History Index (dates)(-journal), History Provider Cache, History-Journal, last session, last tabs None will have a file extension.

Winapp2.ini Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Google Chrome will act as if nothing happened to them if you successfully restore them to the proper place. winapp2.ini additions thread winapp2.ini github Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What folder should i restore all the files to that recuva recovers? It is making me pick a location via "browse" button. i want chrome history to go back to how it was.

Moderators Augeas Posted April 7, 2016 Moderators Share Posted April 7, 2016 Much too spammy. A three-year-old thread, and it looks as if Mr Killjoy hasn't bothered to read it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
