Ihtahn U (ID: 0000000502d17d96) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 10/02/2022 The extension unexpectedly got corrupted and after repairing it, all my saved tab windows (some of which I had saved for years) were now gone and I have no way of retrieving them again

Jack Ceck (ID: 000000eb3bdced30) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 08/24/2022 Simple, easy clean, works perfectly. I just press one button and everything open is saved, no unnecessary setup.

Dan O'Connell (ID: 000000b29e9ecfa9) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 03/17/2022 Very useful extension. Suggestion: make it possible to save just one tab at a time. (I rarely need to save all my tabs at once.)
