Hi, Sometimes when chrome is closed via killing process chrome.exe from task manager, next time when we open chrome it gives a popup on right hand side, restore
View this on Blueprism >

And we have found a solution to this:

1. Spy Restore Popup window using Win32

2. Use Global Send Keys to Close or Restore - A. Activate Application B. Press Alt C. Tab once to 'X' or four times to 'Restore' D. Hit Enter

This should close or restore the session.

Thanks,

I actually automated this yesterday, and came across your post now while randomly going through the community.
  1. I spied the restore window with win32,
  2. I spied the close button using UIA.
  3. Then I used global mouse click center to close it.

another way is- in the preference file of chrome - change the "exit_type":"Crashed" to "exit_type":"none"

Provided that you are willing to set the preferences file to read only, which makes chrome unable to do other things.
Seems like the less desirable option.

hello Leon - so far this option is going fine for us.
and yes other options mentioned above are also good to handle this situation.
