Keep pinned tabs alive

With this extension, upon closing a window with pinned tabs, the pinned tabs will be moved to another window.

Keep Pinned Tabs Alive is a helpful Chrome extension that protects your pinned tabs from being closed unintentionally. When you close a browser window that contains pinned tabs, this extension automatically moves those pinned tabs to another open window instead of closing them. This ensures your important tabs remain accessible and you don’t lose your pinned tabs accidentally.

Designed to enhance your browsing experience, this extension is perfect for users who rely on pinned tabs for essential websites or frequently accessed pages. It operates seamlessly in the background, providing peace of mind and productivity without disrupting your workflow.
