Copy All URLs - Save and Restore Your Browser Tabs
A privacy-focused, open-source extension that makes managing browser tabs simple. Copy URLs from your open tabs in any format, then paste them back to restore your session.
Based on the trusted Umbrella CopyAllURLs project, rebuilt for modern Chrome standards.
WHAT IT DOES
Copy URLs - Export all your open tabs in multiple formats:
• Plain Text (URL + Title)
• HTML (clickable links)
• JSON (structured data)
• URL Only (just the links)
• Delimited (custom separators for spreadsheets)
• Custom Templates (create your own format)
Paste URLs - Restore your tabs instantly. Paste a list of URLs and open them all in new tabs with one click. Works with any text containing URLs—the extension automatically extracts and cleans them.
Smart Features:
• Copy from all tabs or just selected tabs
• Include tabs from all windows
• Keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl+Shift+U to copy, Ctrl+Shift+Y to paste)
• Right-click context menu integration
• Auto-copy on popup open (optional)
• Dark mode support

- love that it's open-source! thank you for building this, it works great :D

- After updating to version 1.10.5, the extension is unfortunately less usable than before. In previous versions, I could: Copy all tabs easily One-click open URLs from the clipboard, which was extremely useful Now, clicking the extension icon immediately copies only the current window’s tabs, and the “open URLs from clipboard” feature seems to be removed or no longer accessible. This change breaks my workflow and removes one of the most valuable features of this extension. I really appreciate the project and its privacy-focused, open-source nature, but I sincerely hope the developer can restore the clipboard one-click open function and the previous behavior, or at least make it optional in settings. Thank you for the hard work, and I hope future updates bring back the functionality that made this extension so great.

- Antan Natna
- It looks like settings (like copy selected tabs only) get reset after every chrome update.

- all is good, but we need an shortcut key for copy and paste tab

- Once the extension has been updated to no longer include the tab title by default it deserves many 5/5 reviews because so far it's the only extension on the web store that allows to copy the URLs of SELECTED tabs only. All the other options are great, textarea is nice (but would be cool to be able to disable it for minimalism), no other improvements are needed, maybe add a dark mode and a way to disable the context menu option and that's it, not only mirrors the functionality of the old beloved extension but it also improves on it. The icon is also a bit hard to read, many of us got used to the umbrella, it would be nice for it to make a comeback.

- Good tool. There is now a URL-only option, which solves the problem mentioned by the first 2 reviewers. To enable it, click on the gear icon that says "Options", then mark "URL Only". Easy. That setting will remain until you change it. Compared to the last browser extension that I used to copy / paste URLs, which Chrome no longer supports, this one has a handful of advanced features. Some users will find them useful at times. For instance, if you mark the checkbox for "Smart Paste", then you'll be able to paste in a chunk of text containing URLs; and the tool will automatically extract those URLs and open them. The last tool I used wasn't able to grab the title text at all – just the URLs. Having the option to include titles can be a time saver, if you plan on collecting them. There is an option to format the output, customizing it any way you wish. For example, if you do want both title and URL, then you could choose to separate them with a tab. That enables pasting them into a spreadsheet as separate columns. It's also possible to obtain URLs and titles as JSON or HTML, simply by selecting one of those options. Room for improvement: 1. Most users, I suspect, want only to copy URLs – not titles. Perhaps this should be the default setting. 2. For non-technical users, it would be convenient to choose to export URL + title by specifying a delimiter (e.g. tab, comma, etc.). This could exist as a radio button above "Custom" together with a field for the delimiting character(s). A common use case would be pasting into Excel or Google Sheets. So I'd recommend looking at the "text to columns" option in those spreadsheet applications and emulate the UX for delimiter selection. Modifying a snippet of HTML is hardly a major obstacle, but some people would struggle with it. Marking "delimiter" and then "tab" is a much more streamlined UX. 3. Ideally, clicking "Options" would not open a new browser tab. Users are often looking at many open tabs already. After all, that's why they want a tool to copy URLs in bulk. I find this causes me to lose track of the tab I was looking at. And there's a tendency to also copy the tab for "Options" when it's left open alongside the other browser tabs. A modal window would be preferable to an "Options" page. 4. The "Options" page saves user settings without pressing a button. But it's non-intuitive to close the tab without saving. Out of habit, I clicked the one big red button that is present at the bottom: "Reset Settings". But this just undid what I'd done. Maybe it would be worthwhile to add a conspicuous "Save" button, which would simply close the browser tab.

- Excellent App which does what it says on the tin and it's a great alternative to the previous "Copy/Paste URLs" which has now been discontinued. Note to the developer: I agree with the previous reviewer. Whilst your recommended solution is a clever fix, it's very "developer" orientated and not exactly something that is common knowledge to the masses. May I suggest including an option in the settings to include/exclude the tab title. This would make it more user-friendly and easier to adopt. As someone who has used the previous version of Copy/Paste for nearly a decade, simplicity is key.

- Sorry - a waste of time. Yeah, it copies the URLS - but also the title text too - so it's kind of worthless.
