[Guide] Make Microsoft Edge open tabs from previous browsing session

Microsoft Edge is the modern replacement for the antiquated Internet Explorer. While it’s not as popular as Chrome or Mozilla (at least not yet), Edge does support all the latest web standards and it extremely fast. One of the ways to make it more functional is to make Microsoft Edge open tabs from previous browsing session.

Like other useful features, this one is not enabled by default. However, it’s certainly nice to have your previous browsing session restored as soon as you open the browser and have peace of mind when you close it in a hurry, knowing you’ll be able to access all those tabs next time you open it.
