All internet browsers permit users to open several tabs so you can peruse multiple websites without having to close the current website you are checking out.

However, there might be a time when you accidentally close a tab that you still wish to view.

• Make sure that there is one tab open.

• At least one tab should be present to be able to reopen the accidentally closed tab.

• Press the key combinations CTRL +SHIFT+ T on the keyboard.

• The shut tab will reopen in a new tab window for you to see once more.

• No matter what browser you utilize, you can always go to history

• In Chrome, go to the three dots in the upper right corner

• Select the dots, and a drop-down will appear

• Select history, and you will see a box open to the left

• The box will display recently closed, and you may choose the site

• The closed tab should reopen in a new tab window for you to view.

There will be moments when you would like to check on a tab that you have previously closed, and you would like to open it immediately.

In order to do that, these are some of the things that you can do:

• Go to the side of your web browser and check the three lines that are available on the upper right side of the screen.

• Go to history and check out the different websites that you have checked for a certain period of time.

• Take note that this will only work if you have not cleared your browser history yet.

With all of these things in mind, you will be able to find the link to the website that you have previously closed. Just click on it again, and it will open on your web browser.
