Tab Save & Restore

Saves the links of all open tabs and allows for one by one or all together restoration.

Tab Save & Restore is a Chrome extension designed for seamless tab management. It saves the links of all your open tabs, allowing you to restore them either individually or altogether at your convenience. This tool is perfect for users who prefer not to sign in to their browser but want an easy way to save their browsing sessions before shutting down or switching devices.

The extension simplifies what used to be a tedious task—copy-pasting tab URLs into a text file—into a quick and efficient process with just a few clicks. For detailed usage instructions and support, users can visit its GitHub repository where they can also report any issues.

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Tab Save & Restore requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details
