Summary

You can pin frequently used tabs (music player, email, IM, etc.) and use them in multiple windows without having to switch to the window where the tab was originally pinned.

Note: Please use "close tabs to the right" instead of "close window", otherwise the pinned tabs in the current window will be closed as well.

User reviews
My first review for an extension since i never write them, but this was exactly what i was looking for and couldn't find anywhere, i use it to keep another extension, a tab manager, pinned so i can acess it in all multiple windows i have open at the moment. Thank you!

I searched everywhere to find an extension that would keep my set of "work tabs" on whichever window I was using. This one works great. Would love to see future options for a denylist to exclude some tabs from moving around (or an allowlist for which ones should be moved), being able to restore a set of standard tabs if I do mistakenly completely close a window, and maybe a temporary disable for when I'm working between multiple windows at once and don't need the tabs thrashing. That said, think I can get a fair bit of this from other pinned tab extensions. Really happy to see this one!
