Parked tabs occasionally do not auto-reload and even worse refuse to reload

[jdb2]

I'm using Google Chrome version 39.0.2171.52 beta-m (64-bit) with TabMemFree version 0.1.3.2 .

The problem I'm having is that a lot of the time a tab will be parked and when I navigate to it TabMemFree does nothing forcing me to reload the page which usually restores the tab.

But, there's a more serious problem : Sometimes when I navigate to a parked tab, TabMemFree will refuse to reload the tab no matter how many times I click Google Chrome's reload icon. For example, if I save all open pages to a bookmark folder, close Chrome, restart Chrome and then try to restore all of the bookmarks from said folder, I experience the issue described in the previous paragraph. That is, although the restored tabs are parked and contain a URL to the original page the tab was referencing, no amount of reloading will restore the tabs. Clicking TabMemFree's "Go Back" option also does nothing. Even If I have saved a browsing session with, say, SessionBuddy, the same problem persists. This means I have to manually restore all the tabs, which is extremely frustrating.

This seems to be a major bug in TabMemFree which hasn't been resolved and has existed since Oct 30 2012 when the developer commented on the Google Web Store Support page for this extension.

If this problem keeps recurring, I'll have to switch to something else.

I have seen the same problem when Chrome crashes.

It will then offer a "restore last session" button, which will restore tabs, but not their history. As far as I can tell TabMemFree tries to use history.back() for reloading the tab, which then fails.

The same probably applies when using bookmarks as described by jdb2.

The issue also occurs when deleting the browsing history.

Possible solution: save the URL along with title and icon in the hashtag part of the URI and use it instead of history.back() when history.length == 1.
