Chrome restore opens too many tabs after Windows restart/Chrome restore

Reported by mike.tub...@gmail.com, Mar 14 2018

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/65.0.3325.162 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Use chrome extensively to view hundreds of sites
2. Have a small number of tabs actually open (6-10)
3. Wait for Microsoft update/Windows restart
4. Chrome launches as part of boot-up sequence
5. Login to windows and find chrome open on desktop with too many tabs

What is the expected behavior?
Chrome should open the exact number of (a) instances of Chrome and (b) tabs in each instance, as were open when it was killed as part of the Windows shutdown/restart sequence.

What went wrong?
It appears that the routine that re-opens tabs (restore) opens each one multiple times - by counting how many I have to click 'x' to close then each one is opened at least 8 times and perhaps 10-12 times.

Did this work before? Yes Not sure but had the problem for the last three Windows update cycles
