Recently Closed Tabs

Overview

Accidentally closed a tab? TabCmdr can show you recently closed tabs and windows so you can restore them instantly.

Enabling Recently Closed

This feature requires the optional sessions permission. To enable it:

  1. Open the TabCmdr Settings page.
  2. Find the Recently Closed (Sessions) toggle and turn it on.
  3. Confirm the permission in the browser prompt.

Restoring a Closed Tab

Once enabled:

  1. Open the palette with ⌘ K / Ctrl K.
  2. Search for “recently closed” or type part of the page title.
  3. Select the tab you want to restore.
  4. Press Enter — the tab reopens exactly where you left it.

Undo Close Tab

TabCmdr also exposes an Undo close tab command that restores the most recently closed tab without searching. Just open the palette, type “undo close”, and press Enter.

Privacy

Session data (titles, URLs, favicons of recently closed tabs) is loaded into memory when you open the palette and discarded when you close it. Nothing is stored or transmitted.
