Type the name of the tab you’re trying to find, then use the arrow keys and Enter to pick it from the results list. Try the Tab Hare extension Jared Newman / IDGįor an even better search experience that works in practically every major browser, check out Tab Hare, a free extension for Chrome, other Chromium-based browsers (such as Microsoft Edge), Firefox, and Safari.Īfter installing the extension, press Ctrl+Shift-Space to bring up a search window. Note that both Chrome and Microsoft Edge offer separate “Switch to this tab” button from inside the main address bar, but unlike the dedicated search menu, there’s no way to activate this button with just your keyboard. That’ll bring up the same tab search menu, with the corresponding keyboard shortcut at the top. If you ever forget how to open this menu with your keyboard, just click the little down arrow to the left of the minimize window icon. (You’ll also see some recently-closed tabs, provided you don’t have too many open ones.) Type in the title of the page you’re looking for, then hit Enter, and you’ll immediately jump over to the appropriate tab. Just press Ctrl+Shift-A, and you’ll see a list of open tabs in the browser’s top-right corner, along with a search box and any tabs you’ve closed recently.
Over the summer, Google added a nifty tab search tool to its browser, one that you can operate exclusively with keyboard shortcuts.
