How to Save All Open Tabs in Google Chrome at Once

Press Ctrl+Shift+D to save all open tabs in Chrome as bookmarks, or use saved tab groups. Here is every way to keep your tabs safe.

Chrome - Edit Bookmarks

To save all open tabs in Google Chrome, press Ctrl+Shift+D on Windows, Linux, or ChromeOS, or Cmd+Shift+D on a Mac. Chrome saves every tab in the current window as bookmarks inside a new folder. You can reopen them all later with one click.

This guide works on Chrome for Windows, Mac, Linux, and Chromebooks. You do not need any extensions. Sign in to Chrome if you want your saved tabs to sync across devices.

How do I bookmark all open tabs at once?

  1. Open the Chrome window with the tabs you want to save.
  2. Press Ctrl+Shift+D (or Cmd+Shift+D on a Mac). You can also right-click any tab and select Bookmark all tabs.
  3. Type a name for the new bookmark folder.
  4. Pick where to keep it, such as the Bookmarks bar.
  5. Click Save.

To bring everything back, right-click the folder on the bookmarks bar and select Open all. Chrome opens every page in the folder at once.

How do I save tabs as a tab group?

A tab group is a named, color-coded set of tabs. A saved group sits on your bookmarks bar and syncs to your other computers. It is a better fit than a bookmark folder when you return to the same set of pages often.

  1. Right-click a tab and select Add tab to new group.
  2. Type a name and pick a color.
  3. Drag your other tabs into the group.
  4. Right-click the group name and turn on Save group.

Can Chrome reopen my tabs automatically?

Yes. Open Settings, select On startup, and choose Continue where you left off. Chrome then brings back your last session every time it starts. If Chrome just closed, press Ctrl+Shift+T to reopen the last closed tab or window.

FAQ

What is the keyboard shortcut to save all tabs in Chrome?

The shortcut is Ctrl+Shift+D on Windows, Linux, and ChromeOS, and Cmd+Shift+D on a Mac. It bookmarks every tab in the current window into one folder.

Do saved tab groups sync to other devices?

Yes. Sign in to Chrome and turn on sync. Your saved tab groups appear on your other computers automatically.

Can I save all tabs in Chrome on my phone?

No. Chrome for Android and iPhone has no one-tap way to save every open tab. You can bookmark pages one at a time, or use tab groups on Android to keep related tabs together.

What if Chrome closed before I saved my tabs?

Press Ctrl+Shift+T right after you reopen Chrome. It restores the last closed tab or window. You can also find your recent pages under History.

Saving tabs takes one shortcut and a couple of clicks. Use bookmark folders for pages you want to keep, and saved tab groups for projects you return to often. Set Chrome to continue where you left off, and you will never lose a session again.
