If you closed your session/browser window by mistake, your changes and calculations are not lost because they are still stored in memory for a certain amount of time:

  • 3 minutes by default (memory is automatically flushed from the server to improve overall performance).
  • 48 hours if the Keep session alive feature is turned on.

Tip

Before using the following procedure to retrieve your tab, you can try to simply use the "Reopen closed tab" feature from Chrome.

To retrieve closed session information, open the Project manager then click on the Tachometer icon on the top-right corner.

If any session can be restored, a popup window will appear displaying the name of the project available to restore.

Simply click on the blue Retrieve button. It will reopen your project in a new tab of your web browser. Your calculation progress bar will also be restored.
