Description

Last session (open tabs) was lost after a regular reboot; unable to restore that session

Steps to Reproduce

Can not reproduce at this point

Brave version (brave://version info)

Version 0.63.55 Chromium: 74.0.3729.131 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Version/Channel Information:

current release

I'm sure this is a known issue but I wasn't able to figure out how to fix this myself.

I'm aware that there are session files stored both in the main directory, as well as the session storage folder (AppData\Local\BraveSoftware\Brave-Browser\User Data), however I'm not sure what to do with those files.

Firefox allows to rename those backup files and replace them with the flawed session, but this doesn't seem to work in this case (respectively not sure what I'm doing wrong).

I have old session files (.ldb) from last night that should contain my open tabs (afaik) but what do I do with them?

The sync function doesn't help because the other device was also updated to a brandnew session :(

Using the browser history is one way to "fix" this (quite tedious task tbh); copy/pasting a single file might be a bit more easier.
