Well, this is a bit hackish, but I got this to work with a minute of effort: wmic Path win32_process Where "CommandLine Like '%chrome.exe\" --type=renderer%'" Call Terminate Tried it on Windows 10, latest Chrome. Ctrl-r didn't work on those killed tabs, had to click reload button. But other than that, the effect seemed to be same than on OS X. Use at your own risk.
