❤️ Once you try it, you’ll love how natural it feels ❤️
❗️👇 Please, read the full description below 👇❗️
Despite its apparent simplicity, the extension uses several technical tricks to work correctly.
👉 PLEASE NOTE: it will modify your bookmark URLs after installation — this is the only way to make bookmarks consistently open in a new tab. The following prefixes will be added:
- newtab@
- newtab@bookmarks-evz.pages.dev/?url=... (some special URLs)
✅ You can always revert your bookmarks to their original URLs — just open the extension options and toggle the switch into OFF.
☝️ If you're using Firefox or Vivaldi, you don't need this extension — the feature is already built-in:

- Firefox: https://support.mozilla.org/eu/questions/1316474
Why isn’t it built into Edge? 🤷♂️
ℹ️ Known Limitations
1. Some bookmarks may temporarily lose their icons. Once you click a bookmark, the icon will be restored.
2. Some websites may show a popup: "Leave site?" [Cancel] [Leave]
Despite the message, you can click [Leave] — your page will be preserved and the bookmark will open in a new tab.
🗑️ Uninstall Instructions
If you’ve decided to uninstall the extension:
1. Open the extension settings
2. Toggle the switch to the OFF position
This will restore your bookmarks to their original state and prevent any unexpected behavior after extension removal.

- (2025-08-18) 小羊: 还不错,解决了新标签页打开书签的需求,edge官方原本有这个功能的,不懂为何naocan给取消掉了,原本以为国外人没这个需求,原来一样也有,所以只能说,edge真是生怕有好功能给用户用上了,真狗啊
- (2025-07-26) welcome: 还有个问题,使用后网站收藏的星星就没了,不知道该网址有没有收藏过,插件能否增加一个提示,提示网址是否已收藏,就在插件上显示一个对钩就行,已收藏的有对钩,未收藏的无对钩。
- (2025-07-19) ying: 非常实用的插件,小插件解决了大问题,为作者点赞。不过还是要提个小建议,现在要恢复书签的URL需要在插件设置里去取消滑块选中,可能有一些人会不知道。不如改为在插件管理界面取消插件右侧的滑块就可以恢复书签URL(也就是说,启用插件,改书签URL,取消插件使用,恢复书签URL),不必再在设置里去选择
