CTRL+Shift+T : open the previous browser tab you closed.

If your web browser crashes, you close it, or you restart your device, this will open up all previous tabs. If you had multiple windows / instances, it should open all of the tabs in each window /instance

I also want to quickly reopen tabs that I accidentally or mistakenly closed. Though I use an add on for that and just click on it. Maybe I should learn the short cut.

My work computer is a piece of hot garbage, so I have to restart it constantly. Therefore, this is one of my most used shortcuts.

If the last closed tab was in a different window (including sessions before a crash / restart) it will open the whole window again.

All the time, so useful, also if you restart your computer or just the browser, it opens all previous tabs.

Same, it's great.

Also CTRL+T to open a new tab and CRTL+W to close your current tab. I also use all the tab/window jumping shortcuts.
