When I leave a Chrome window open and shutdown Windows, when starting it again, the window reopens (with all the tabs). How can I disable this?

PS: I would also like to disable that Chrome opens up every tab again after I close the window. So when closing the window and opening it again that no tabs are open. Because I already select that Chrome should open ONLY chrome://apps on StartUp

PPS: Maybe the reopening of the whole window has something to do with Windows settings also?


Note: This is not a duplicate as suggested above, since the problem also occurs when I just reopen Chrome without restarting Windows...

  • Open chrome settings and scroll down to "On Startup" then tick "Open the New Tab Page"

    Hah, if I knew it would be so simple. It is just a bit confusing, since there are three options to choose from (1) New tab (2) Open (all) last visited pages (3) Open a specific tab. I would have assumed, that (3) does ONLY open this specific tab and NOT also all the previously visited pages as well. But it looks like it does. Just a bit irritating...

Try 'AdwCleaner' to remove all the unwanted PUP (Potential Unwanted Program) from your system. This will remove all the malware also and make your system clean.
