If you prefer to keep the tab actions button hidden, you can swap between the standard and vertical tabs views on Windows by pressing Ctrl + Shift +, (Comma). This view won’t be everyone’s favorite, but the wider space can make it easier to identify which tabs you have open. This moves your tabs from their usual spot above the address bar to the left side of the window. The tab actions menu also lets you turn on Edge’s “vertical tabs” mode. Here, you can pull up the tab search menu, a list of recently closed tabs, and a list of Edge tabs you have open on other devices. To make this visible, click on Edge’s three-dot menu button, then go to Settings > Appearance > Customize toolbar, then activate the “Show tab actions menu” toggle. The address bar shortcut mentioned above won’t work here, but you can still assign custom names to windows.Īnother way to access some of Edge’s tab-related tools is through the dedicated “tab actions” icon in the top left corner. It, too, has a tab grouping feature, which works in effectively the same way: Just right-click on one or more tabs and select “Add tab(s) to group.” As with Chrome, you can give each group a custom name and color, and you can quickly collapse or expand the tabs within each group by clicking its label.Īlso like Chrome, hitting Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + A will pull up a tab search menu, which vertically lists your current and recently closed tabs and distinguishes any media-playing tabs. Microsoft Edge is built on the same codebase as Chrome, so it shouldn’t be a surprise to hear that its tab management features are similar to those found in Google’s browser. To do this, pull up the window you want to name, right-click the empty space next to the new tab (or “+”) icon and select “Name window.” If you have a bunch of work-related tabs in one window, for instance, you could call that one “Work”.

If you like to order your tabs by putting them in distinct windows, you can give each a custom name for better organization. Just type then hit the space bar or Tab to initiate it. You can also search through your open tabs directly from Chrome’s address bar. You can close tabs directly from here as well, and the menu will break out any open tabs that are currently playing audio or video.

This will show you a tidy vertical list of all your open tabs, plus a handful that you’ve recently closed. You can also pull this up by hitting Ctrl + Shift + A on Windows, or Cmd + Shift + A on macOS. This is the downward-facing arrow in the top right corner of your window. Regardless of whether you use tab groups, you can quickly search through all of your open tabs by using the “Search tabs” button.
