rest in peace, this extension was crucial. please upgrade to manifest v3! edit: also, for those who don't know, you can manually join your tabs by clicking the first tab in a window, shift+clicking the last tab in that window, and then dragging the whole group to another window. still would be nice to have this one-click extension back.

It feels like a magic. I have a process that creates lots of Chrome Windows, and with this extension, I can convert them to tabs with a single click. Awesome work. Thank you.

I've been using this for years, since Win7, it's been with me when I have single monitor or multiple monitor. It's just a click and brings it all together. I use it, when I need to shut-down and don't want to go through my history.
