Recovering tabs from a different PC
My primary PC died about a month ago, and the SSD is fried. I had it synced to both my phone and a secondary one, so no problem accessing things. I bought a new one online, and it just arrived. Then, when I tried opening all my tabs on my new PC, I found that they were no longer available, on either that one, or my other devices. This is new, because I had already recovered a few individual tabs to my phone previously, but I hadn't thought to open all 50-100 of them then since I was waiting on a new primary laptop. The device still shows up among the connected services on my account, but it doesn't show the tabs anywhere I could find, and since the SSD doesn't work I can't go into the files and manually port them over. Is there a way to solve this?

On the new pc, what do you see here? see screenshot SSD is fried... Does that mean that putting it in a external case doesn't work?

Synced tabs gives me two sections, one containing the tabs from my phone, one with the tabs from my secondary PC. Same thing from the phone or that PC, it shows tabs from the other and from this new one.
I opened the computer to try it, but the repair shop took the SSD apparently. I sent them a message about it, but it'll be tomorrow that they are open, so I can only wait. They were the ones who told me data couldn't be recovered from it, but I'll see when I get it back.
Sorry, but they sound.... interesting. The drive is fried means what? Did it burn up? Did they even try to put it in a external drive to see if they could access the data? Lesson learned here... local repair shops should be your last option. There is tooooo much info online that possibly could've helped with this issue. I digress... If the old pc is not showing in sync, then we've come to the end of the road.

They said the hard drive shorted due to overheating, sent me a pic of it inside some kind of apparatus with a red light and said the data wasn't recoverable. I haven't got it back yet to try myself, it should be on monday.
I'm not sure what the other option would be, if not local shops. The PC is well past warranty, and I got it reconditioned.
Guess the only way is to wait for the SSD and try that.
Yeah, sounds like game over. If no other questions, mark it as resolved and get back to it.
