Improved layout and added some animations.

  • (2024-02-27) Flippa_da_Boss: I recommend setting the backup options to every 4hrs, easier to manage your backups this way.
  • (2024-02-15) Derek Antrican: WARNING: this will fail to restore a tab if it is pointing to a local file (eg if you have a PDF open in your browser) and that may also cause THE ENTIRE WINDOW TO FAIL TO RESTORE. Fortunately, you can use the "Advanced Restore" option to go to that Window, select all tabs, then unselect the tab for the local file. Then you can restore the window without that tab. Otherwise this extension works great and provides great peace of mind though Windows Updates, browser updates, or other issues that might cause you to lose your open tabs.
  • (2023-11-06) art4droid: restore avoids to restore 1 window with tabs, even manually restoring the window, nothing happens... Update: Found out its the tabs with opened PDF stored on disk, that prevents opening whole window group. Chrome does that with some online pdfs, downloads and opens it rightaway.
  • (2023-10-24) Ralf: Not pretty, but does what it says. And that's awesome!
  • (2023-10-13) Muki Dude: make manual backups to be permanent unless you delete
  • (2023-08-22) Walerian Walawski: Easy to use, works perfectly, I've been using it for over 6 years now :-)
  • (2023-08-09) Rafie “Rafie G” Raphael: I cant tell you how many time this has saved my butt!
  • (2023-04-26) Jose Lu: Does not work with tab groups. Tends to crash browser when restoring since it keeps the old windows open. Does not save the workspace or the history for each tab. Also, most important, is that even though it has an account with the website, it does not allow to restore tabs on another computer, which is a badly needed feature for those who work with more than 1 computer, which should be easily more than half of the users.
  • (2023-03-01) Eli: It doesn't always work with Vivaldi browser, specialty with tabs stack .
  • (2023-02-14) Joshua Escarilla: This extension is very useful. But it's kind of difficult to determine which backup I want to restore because there is no title aside from the timestamp. Maybe one field is enough for us to input the title, so we don't get lost if we want to find a specific backup that we want to restore. I guess that's only the missing ability of this extension; otherwise, it would be a 5-star already.
  • (2023-01-28) Anton Tkach: Perfect for restoring crashed chrome or when default tab history gets corrupted
  • (2023-01-16) Rocky: Sadly, like most Tab extensions, Tabs Backup & Restore fails to deliver on what it claims. For example, it is limited to `only' recent history. As a result of using, I had to pianstakingly go through my Chrome history to restore many tabs that Tabs Backup & Restore failed to store. Tabs Backup & Restore is severely crippled by its failure to record tab/window history, since it `only' stores 1 or 2 days worth.
  • (2023-01-02) Henry Goodelman: Wow! FINALLY A SINGLE TAB CHROME EXTENSION THAT RESTORES AND SAVES SESSIONS WHEN CHROME CRASH DOESN'T RETURN THEM. BRAVO. One time this extension was not turned on for me some how though, so I did lose mass browsing history in that instance.
  • (2022-10-28) djvj: Excellent backup solution. Just make sure to set backups to 80 and timing to at least 10 minutes otherwise it might not go back far enough. Should be able to hold more than 80 though. UPDATE 10/28/2022 Does not support chromes new Tab Groups feature. Making this extension useless if you use that, which I do. Please update the extension.
  • (2022-10-05) Mark Handley: Totally let me down as did not do the job, I expected, of restoring individual windows with their 20-100+ tabs.
  • (2022-10-04) Allan Laal: only restores URLs, not actual sessions. does not save Workspace info. incapable for dealing with large-ish tab sets of (~1000 tabs in 200 windows). waste of time!
  • (2022-08-03) Demonio Diabo: Do NOT trust this. Only work for recently closed pages. I Lost 119 tabs because back up didn't work and simply disappeared.
  • (2022-05-08) Team Moe: can't export and import.
  • (2022-03-26) Xalomon: This does not restore tabs, just opens new tab with saved URL (you lose the pages Back button goes to on the tabs.) Useless for many tabs (if you close a window with many tabs and use Recently Closed to open it, everything is fine. If you use this extension then ALL tabs want to be loaded in memory which makes Chrome and sometimes the entire system hang.)
  • (2022-03-24) 윌로우: when tabs restored, tabs should be suspended. now too many tabs load at one time so sometimes browser freezed
  • (2022-02-11) Michael “Mike” Labus: This is a great app I use it not just for immediate backups but also to keep collections of tabs I want to re-open later on. I just wish there was a setting that allowed the tabs to be opened full screen instead of the reduced size. Thats super minor compared to how good it is otherwise. I do wish you could name the backups however.
  • (2022-02-05) Alexandru Macedon: It doesn't do things write. Or the thing , because it only has to to one thing and it doesnt do it. I open let's say 10 tabs in incognito mode, I allow it to work in incognito mode, i save the tabs manually close incognito, open it again, and it restores the tabs in normal chrome not incognito. well, what is the point to allow it in incognito, if it doesnt open the tabs in incognito ? what a joke of an extension
  • (2021-12-06) Xavier Rezgui: using it for years. I really love it. Take a look at the options, you can save up to 80 sessions (for example one every hour for about 3 days)
  • (2021-10-04) Jo Chen: This is not a Backup and restore App! this is a history archive of your Tabs. new device and all is gone... now way to retrieve the data which I backed up on the old device.
  • (2021-09-11) TraJikar Mac: for me I tested all ways of crashing and closing the browser. I tried to kill tree process, shutdown the computer. delete the browser from task manager, sign out from windows, I tried all the ways that may close the browser suddenly and causes you to loose your opened tabs, and I found that this extension is the best, It survived last opened tabs in all browser crash cases. I strongly suggest this extension to you. And strongly thanks to the developer, you made something Wonderful. 🌹
  • (2021-08-30) Axel P: It does not have 80 backups but like 16. I choose in the setup options 80 backups, but it does stop earlier and delete automatically older backups. Otherwise great app. Thanks.
  • (2021-08-21) Todd Seiler: The only thing I would like to see are the tabs backed up to google drive or somewhere. My computer crashed and there was no way to restore despite having this extensions installed.

  • (2021-07-31) Mushamisi Kahari: I rarely use the app and when I need to use it the back ups disappear. I have scheduled the back ups and all the other stuff your supposed to do but suddenly all the back ups data is lost and no chance of recovery at all. I installed this for a reliable alternative to what I had been using before.
  • (2021-07-28) Anti System: I use it with Session Buddy.Both are working great together.
  • (2021-07-13) debschter: Really, what is a backup worth, if after a pc crash the backups are gone!!! I use onetab, to organise and backup tabs for longer term, but was looking for a way to shortbackup my tabs. That in case of a computer crash or another reason I need to reinstall my pc, I could easily get my tabs back I'm working with. For a chrome cast it usally gives the opportunity to "recover" or you can do so using history in chrome. If there is nothing wrong, chrome just remembers your tabs if you set the correct options So what does this extension do? Actually not anything more then just the autobackup of your tabs chrome already has (and you set the function to open all previous tabs after closing and opening chrome) What does this extension not do? - Backup in a cloud - Give the opportunity to get the backed up tabs after a reinstall of the pc - Give the opportunity to choose a location the extension backs up to (or from) like on D: So after a reinstall you backups are fine Conclusion in the end completely useless and learned that the hard way.
  • (2021-07-13) Auke Wiltjer: The only good reason for using such an extension is if chrome f.u. something, but most of the time you will have the option of ?xnumber of tabs closed at ones and restore from there, but more important, if you need to reintall your pc and don't wanna lose the tabs you are working with. Before reinstalling I checked if the backup was there and worked. I reinstalled my pc and..... everything was gone!! There was NO backup. What is the use of a backup if it's not stored in a cloud-linked to you account. So really completely useless.
  • (2021-06-12) FS Zhang: easy & helpful extention! HELP: I know backup data doesn't take much space, however, after certain time span many unwanted entries are produced. I prefer to keep a good management of savig history, so is there any way I can delete those entries? Thanks !
  • (2021-05-27) loner coder: How difficult can it be to keep and restore tabs? This is, yet again, another app that I've tried that works good in theory. It keeps track of tabs. However, restoring them is a hassle. When I try to restore a previous session I get the "ahmkjjgdligadogjedmnogbpbcpofeeo is blockedRequests to the server have been blocked by an extension." error and cannot access any of my tabs.
  • (2021-05-07) Clemens Ratte-Polle: seems to work fluently :) But "Auto backup" should also have an option to be disabled to do it manually. thx ps: there is no translation for german "sollte beendet werden können"?
  • (2021-04-25) Jim: it does it's job sometimes. it needs more options. An import/export option. Recent backups are overwritten. i have backups from 2017 with the FreshStart - Cross Browser Session Manager and Session Buddy extension.
  • (2021-03-22) Mohit Nagar: It would have been better than Chrome's built-in "Bookmark all tabs" if tab groups could be backed up too!
  • (2021-02-23) Elizabeth: Been Using 1 Year. It has worked for me every time. Since I regularly go down rabbit holes, while also working on huge spreadsheets that like to crash my computer, this is very helpful.
  • (2021-02-21) Eran Anton: Please PLEASE Please! can you please change the thing that when you update the extension, it won't restore the settings to default? I had 400 tabs and now I cant restore them at anyway because of that:(
  • (2021-01-28) Prathamesh Shanbhag: Absolutely amazing extension,helped me save over 200 open tabs ! The auto save feature is amazing
  • (2021-01-23) Wendelin: Simple and does exactly what it promises, this extension has saved my session many times.
  • (2021-01-11) Ekaterina Dzyubak: This works to restore recent backups only. The auto feature backs up very often and there is a limited number of backups - which would be ok if it did not overwrite manual backups also once it reaches its limit. That was a really bad surprise for me as it did not have a clear warning about that. I lost an important set of tabs I worked with just because I did not need to use them for a week over the holidays. I saved them manually and never found them after about a week...
  • (2020-12-30) Nick D'Amico: A must have feature in my opinion that is currently LACKING, and causing me to lose some open tabs is the ability to 'pin' a given backup in such a way that it is not overridden anymore by the automatic backups (ie, it doesn't count toward the max backup limit). This would be particularly useful for manual backups, which in my opinion by default should never be overridden by automatic backups. Hopefully the developer reads these comments
  • (2020-12-21) Alan K: This extension has saved my tabs many times. One suggestion, can you add backup/restore of tab groups as well. Restoring pinned tabs into a pinned state would be nice too.
  • (2020-11-29) RubySapior: My computer crashes twice in a row often. PC crashes once and twice before i can "restore closed tabs". This extension has been perfect for me. No more searching for hours through the chrome history to find all my tabs. Cons: This extension also reloads all tabs. All 86 of my tabs were opened and reloaded, which then started to play every single youtube video nearly crashing my computer a 3rd time and I have a I5 16GB pc. At least I dont have to worry about data loss.
  • (2020-11-27) Altaf Vasi: Just love this app. Hope someone can keep supporting it for the new browsers.
  • (2020-11-25) Saniya Tiwad: the extension crashed and all my data was gone
  • (2020-11-20) Віктор В: Саме те, що потрібно, на випадок, коли закрив браузер або він сам закрився, потім відкрив якесь посилання, закрив його, і після цього вже старі вкладки більше не відкриєш, треба шукати в історії.
  • (2020-10-22) Omar Bull-47: The only extension I could find which can restore tabs my multiple tabs & windows when googles crashes but when it restores it opens all the tabs at the same time, for example all my YouTube tabs open and start playing at the same time causing cpu to be on 100% load and pc really slow down. Please fix that developers. Then this will be perfect!
  • (2020-09-13) Monika Zeltina: Короче, ребята, если хотите сделать перенос своих вкладок с одного компа на другой, или с одного Chromium браузера на другой, как например делаю сейчас я - переношу 40 табов из Chrome в Brave - то просто найдите папку "dehocbglhkaogiljpihicakmlockmlgd" на диске C. Вас интересует место расположения под папкой "Local Extension Settings". Там всё и хранится в файле 000003.log. Этот файл и скопируйте поверх такого же в новом браузере или на новом компе, затем перезагрузите браузер и вся ваша история бэкапов будет доступна для восстановления. Hey, if you want to backup your tabs to restore in other Chromium based browser or under new Windows, just backup the 000003.log file under "dehocbglhkaogiljpihicakmlockmlgd" folder (the one under "Local Extension Settings" on your C drive).
