Move Multiple Tabs Between Browser Windows at Once

Introduction

In Chrome based browsers moving tabs between windows is something most people do regularly.

The built-in tools work well for simple cases:

• Moving a single tab between windows
• Creating a new window from selected tabs
• Rearranging tabs within the same window

For light use, these workflows are straightforward. But once you start working with many tabs and multiple windows, moving tabs around quickly becomes harder than it should be.

Where Moving Multiple Tabs Starts to Break Down

Problems appear when you want to move multiple tabs between windows, especially when more than two windows are involved.

The process relies entirely on drag-and-drop for this, which means:

• You must drag selected tabs across the screen
• The destination window needs to be visible and unobstructed
• Tabs must be dropped precisely onto the correct tab strip
• With several windows open, it’s easy to miss the intended target

While the browser technically supports these actions, the experience becomes fragile and error-prone as window count grows.

Move Multiple Tabs in One Clear Action

Using TabsPrompt removes the need for precise dragging.

Instead of aiming tabs at the right window, you can select multiple tabs and move them together in a single, deliberate action. This works whether you're organizing tabs into new windows or consolidating them into existing ones.

This makes reorganizing tabs predictable and repeatable, even when many windows are open.

When Bulk Tab Moves Are Most Useful

Moving multiple tabs at once is especially helpful when:

• You’re organizing research or reading sessions
• You’re separating work and personal browsing
• You’re consolidating many windows into fewer ones

Bulk actions reduce friction and make window management scale with your workload.

Summary

Chrome base browsers supports moving tabs between windows, but its native workflow relies on manual dragging that doesn’t scale well when many tabs and windows are involved.

Bulk tab moves turn a fragile, precision-based task into a clear, intentional action. They make organizing windows faster, more reliable, and far less frustrating.

TabsPrompt makes it easier to move multiple tabs between windows at once, helping you organize your browser without micromanaging individual tabs.
