safari windows

Safari had a problem and closed automatically. When I reopened, all the windows I had stored in the bottom bar disappeared. I tried getting them back through time machine, but it didn't work. Is there any way to get them back?

iMac 27″, macOS 10.12

Safari 16.0 ..no longer 'Reopen All Windows from Last Session'? Since the recent upgrade to Safari 16.0, when I start up Safari in the morning and click on "Reopen All Windows from Last Session" from the previous day,, only TWO windows will show up,, not the 6 or 7 windows from the previous day. this feature worked perfectly before the upgrade (so please don't suggest to "make sure your Macintosh computer is plugged in") thank you, :D

Lost Safari tabs after update to macOS 13.6.5/Safari 17.4 I've been able to keep dozens of tabs open across sessions with Safari set to open with all windows from last session but they were lost after updating to 17.4. Option under History to "Reopen All Windows from Last Session" that I've used previously is now grayed out. I was unable to recover the tabs with the trick of restoring 3 files from backup (SafariTabs.db, SafariTabs.db-shm, and SafariTabs.db-wal in folder ~/Library/Containers/Safari/Data/Library/Safari), which has worked in the past. Any advice is appreciated. Correction: tagged with wrong device-actually MacBook Pro 16", 2019

I'm afraid not, your normal last chance of getting them is when Safari next starts up it'll ask if you want to Restore Windows & Tabs.
