Forget the default Chrome "all or nothing" choice—where you either lose all your tabs or reopen all the mess there was before crash and freezing your PC trying to load them all at once. Tabs Outliner lets you reopen only the windows or individual tabs you need NOW. Everything else remains safely saved in the exact context it was in before the crash, consuming zero resources until you are ready for it. ☀ Tabs List Exporter - Easily export and share an annotated list of your tabs via Google Docs, Word, Evernote, email, or messengers. Entire window hierarchies can be exported with a simple Drag & Drop, or you can save your entire tree as an HTML file (Ctrl+S in the main window). ☀ One-Click Procrastination Stopper - Instantly close-save all open tabs and windows while preserving their full structure and context. Regain system performance and mental clarity in seconds, and return to your work with a clean slate. = PAID FEATURES = Everything mentioned above is absolutely free to use.
