Save

Close the laptop. Keep the context.

Save your current window or all normal windows as a named session. Tabfold keeps the window layout, tab order, pinned tabs and Chrome tab groups.

  • Save the current window or all of them
  • Save & close selected tabs to free up memory
  • Organize sessions by workspace
Restore

Preview before anything changes.

Before a session opens, Tabfold compares it with your current browser and shows what's already open and what Chrome won't let it restore. Choose the tabs you need, then restore into new windows — your existing tabs stay put.

  • Restore in new windows, or replace current tabs after confirming
  • Skip tabs that are already open
  • Pick exactly which tabs to bring back
Undo

Removed the wrong thing? Get it back.

Tabfold keeps a local history of your browser state as you work. Go back to an earlier snapshot, and undo or restore anything you moved to Trash.

  • Automatic history of normal windows
  • Compare each snapshot with the one before it
  • Trash keeps removed items for 30 days
Backup

Backups you can check before you trust them.

Export your Tabfold data as a JSON backup file. When you restore, Tabfold validates the file and shows a full summary first — nothing is replaced until you confirm.

  • Validated JSON export, up to 64 MiB
  • Review a backup before replacing anything
  • Move to a new computer or profile
Privacy by design

Your tabs are your business.

Open tabs reveal what you're working on. That's why Tabfold keeps everything on your device and asks for as little access as possible.

Local

Stored on your computer

Workspaces, sessions and history live in your browser. Backups go to files you pick. There's no cloud copy.

Minimal

Only the access it needs

No access to web page content or Chrome history. Bookmarks are only requested if you choose to import them during setup.

Private

Incognito stays incognito

Chrome decides whether Tabfold can see incognito windows. Even then, automatic history and saved sessions leave them out.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Is Tabfold really free?

Yes. Every feature on this page is free, with no account and no ads.

Will opening a saved session close my current tabs?

No. Restore in new windows leaves your existing tabs alone. Replace current tabs is a separate choice and asks you to confirm first.

Where is my data stored?

In your browser's local storage on your computer. Tabfold has no server that receives your tabs. Backups are files you save wherever you like.

Which browsers are supported?

Chrome and other Chromium browsers on desktop, such as Microsoft Edge, Brave and Opera. Firefox and Safari aren't supported yet.

What happens to my data if I uninstall?

Chrome deletes the extension's local data. Export a backup first — you can restore it after reinstalling.

Can I import from another tab manager?

Tabfold restores its own JSON backups and can import your Chrome bookmarks as resources during setup.
