Chrome - How do we recover the text in the text fields?












4














I have noticed that whenever I type things in the text fields of webpages, even when I close Chrome, the text will still persist on reopen.



However while Chrome was opened, I was running some emulators and stuff that basically hog a load of RAM. What happens is that when I come back to Chrome, the text in the text fields are no longer there (the text fields are now empty).



I was wondering how do I recover the text in the text fields?

Use the Lazarus form recovery extension. Probably the best option out there.

    This is cool but I was wondering is there anyway to recover the text that I've lost in the text fields? Like does the contents gets dumped somewhere before it gets purged?
