Launch checklistHow sessions work
Sessions you save on purpose, snapshots that happen on their own. Two layers between you and a lost window.
One command saves the whole window
Open the launcher, type "save", and every open tab in the window is stored as a named session, in order. Save every window at once, or tick just the tabs you want from any window. When you need them back, restore the session into a new window or the one you are in. Sessions sync with your account, so the tabs you saved at work open at home exactly as you left them.
Snapshots run on their own
Every hour, all windows and tabs. Change the interval anytime.

Restore Last Snapshot Manage Snapshots Undo a closed window
Closing a window writes a final snapshot. Restoring it is one command.
Sprint board Active Landing redesign Q3 budget draft Meeting notes Put tabs to sleep, free the memory
The Session Manager also shows your live windows. Put one tab to sleep, or every tab in a window at once, and the memory comes back while everything stays where it is. Sleeping tabs dim with a moon on the board and wake the moment you click them. It plays along with Chrome's own Memory Saver, and needs no extra permissions.
Find a tab you saved weeks ago
Type in the Session Manager and every tab across all your saved sessions and snapshots shows up in one list, each with where it came from. Pick one and the board opens with that tab highlighted. You never have to remember which session you put it in.
Save tabs for later, then close them
Bookmark all tabs leaves you a folder of links. A session keeps the whole window, tab order and pinned tabs included, and syncs it to your account. Save it, close the window to free the memory, and open it again next week or on another computer. Snapshots cover the windows you forgot to save, and closing a window writes one last snapshot on its own.
Save Session Part of a launcher, not another dashboard
Everything lives behind one shortcut. It opens the launcher on any page, and your sessions are a keystroke away.
Most session managers are a separate app you have to visit. UtilEngine is a launcher for your browser, so saving and restoring sessions works like everything else. Press your shortcut, type a few letters, hit Enter, and a saved session is back. The same launcher runs 50+ commands, from a calculator to JSON tools to AI chat.
Page content and browsing history never reach our servers. You sign in once with Google or your purchase email, and we store your account details. Session contents sync through your account so your devices stay in step, and they are never shared with anyone.

Sessions, answered
How do I save a Chrome session?
Open the launcher with your shortcut, type save, and choose Save Session. Press Enter to keep every tab in the window, give it a name, and it is stored in order. It works the same in Chrome, Brave, and Edge.
How do I restore a Chrome session?
Open the launcher, type sessions, pick the one you want, and press Enter to open it in a new window, or Shift+Enter for the window you are in. Sessions sync with your account, so you can restore on another computer as well.
Are my tabs saved when I close Chrome?
Closing a window writes a final snapshot, and snapshots also run every hour while you browse. The tabs from a window you closed, or from a browser that crashed, wait in Manage Snapshots for 14 days. Saving a session is still the way to keep something for good.
How is this different from bookmarking all tabs?
Bookmark all tabs gives you a folder of links with no window, no order, and no pinned state. A session restores the window the way it was. Bookmarks are still the better choice for a single page you want to keep for years.
What happens if my browser crashes?
UtilEngine snapshots all your open windows on a schedule, every hour by default. After a crash, open the launcher and restore the latest snapshot. Closing a window also writes one final snapshot, so even an accidental close is covered.
How often do snapshots run?
Every hour by default. You can change the interval in settings.
How long are snapshots kept?
14 days, up to 500 snapshots. Sessions you save yourself are kept until you delete them.
Do my sessions sync across computers?
Yes. Sessions follow your UtilEngine account. Save a window at work, restore it at home, in any Chromium browser.
Can I search for a tab without knowing which session it is in?
Yes. The Session Manager searches every tab across all saved sessions and snapshots at once, and opens the right board with the tab highlighted.
How big can a session be?
A session holds up to 25 windows, 250 tabs each.
Can I save only some of my tabs?
Yes. Save Session lists every open tab first. Press Enter to keep them all, or Cmd+Enter (Ctrl+Enter on Windows) to tick the ones you want from any window. Name the session and only those are saved.
Can UtilEngine put tabs to sleep?
Yes. Every live window in the Session Manager has a sleep action, per tab or for the whole window. A sleeping tab frees its memory but stays in place, and clicking it wakes it. Tabs suspended by Chrome's Memory Saver show as asleep too.
Do sleeping tabs lose anything?
The page reloads when it wakes, so unsaved form input is gone. The tab itself, its address, and its spot in the window all stay. The active tab of a window never sleeps.
Which browsers are supported?
Chrome, Brave, Edge, and other Chromium browsers. Firefox support is on the roadmap.
