What do you do if your web browser suddenly closes and you lose all those websites that you were keeping track of for work or school? Fortunately, you can bookmark all your open tabs so if this happens you'll be able to find those websites again easily. This wikiHow article teaches you how to bookmark all tabs in your browser window for Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari.
Things You Should Know
- Bookmarking all the open tabs can only be done on your computer; these steps will not work for Android, iPhone, or iPad.
- The process for bookmarking all open tabs is almost identical on each browser.
- Go to the "Menu" icon or right-click a tab and select "Bookmark all tabs" is pretty much all that you need to do.
Steps
-
Click ⋮. This vertical three-dot menu icon is in the top right corner of your browser window and will prompt a menu to drop down.[1]
-
Hover your mouse over Bookmarks. A menu will appear to the left.[2]
- This menu isn't the same on Android, iPhone, or iPad, so you'll need to use the desktop browser to do this.
