With this shortcut, you can act like the Red Priestess from Game of Thrones and bring back recently closed tabs from the dead. You probably use Command-T to open new tabs, but did you know that Command-Shift-T opens your most recently closed tab? Chrome remembers the last 10 you closed.

Life is full of uncertainties. To wit, some links in Chrome open in the current tab while others open in a new tab. In order to be sure a link opens in a new tab, press Command when you click the link to stay on your current page while opening the link in a new tab in the background. Similarly, use Command-Shift-click to open link in new tab and switch to it.

Mac: Hold Command and select the appropriate number. For example, if I need to jump to the seventh tab open, I hold Command and press 7. If I need to jump back to the second tab open, I hold Command and press 2.

If you want to switch tabs instantly, all you have to do is learn these keyboard shortcuts. Add Workona on top of them, and you'll get even more hotkeys to switch tabs in Chrome (including the option to group tabs & switch between them).

Just hit Command+Shift+T (Mac) or Ctrl+Shift+T (Windows) to open those tabs back up. Remember, you can do this multiple times to keep getting more closed tabs, in the order you closed them (from most-least recent).

Want to move back to an open tab (on the left)? Press Ctrl + Shift + Tab (or Ctrl + Page Up) on your Windows or Linux computer.

These key combinations will take you one step backward and open the tab on the left: Command + Shift + Tab or Shift + Command + Left Squared bracket ( [ ).

On Windows, Linux, and macOS devices, press Control + Tab to move forward to the next tab on the right. On the flip side, Shift + Control + Tab will cycle backward through open tabs.



I use Vimium for Chrome, which allows me to refresh with the r key. When I am using the dev tools I lose focus of the page, and have to click in the page in order to use r again (though I would obviously just refresh with the button). Does anyone know of a keyboard shortcut to switch from the dev tools back to the page? I know you can use cmd [ to switch panes inside of the dev tools, but can't find a way to switch back to the page.

F6 Switch focus forward between the Address bar, Bookmarks bar (if showing), and page content
Shift + F6 Switch focus backward between the Address bar, Bookmarks bar (if showing), and page content


It's roundabout and probably doesn't help in all cases, but if you're testing tab index or something and don't like to use your mouse, this is the only way I figured out how to switch back without closing the console.

I'm sure you use Command-F to find items, such as words in a document or on a webpage. Command-G is its lesser-known relative. Use it to navigate through each instance of the item you want to find. This means that if you use Command-F to find all the mentions of 'Command' on this page, and then tap Command-G, you'll be able to navigate through each one. Oh, and you can also press Shift-Command-G to move back to the previous mention.

If your computer has a mouse with a scroll wheel, you can also adjust the page zoom using the mouse scroll wheel. Scroll the mouse wheel up or forward while holding down the "Ctrl" key on your keyboard to zoom in. Alternatively scroll the mouse wheel down or backward while holding down the "Ctrl" key on the keyboard to zoom out.

To quickly bring back the Chrome tab that you just closed, use the Chrome keyboard shortcut. On Windows, Linux, and ChromeOS, press Ctrl+Shift+T. On Mac, you can use Command+Shift+T to reopen the last closed tab in that order.

So you can use the same shortcut multiple times to bring back all previously closed tabs in this session. Apart from just tabs, if you have closed an entire Chrome window by mistake, you can use the same shortcut to reopen that window.

Alternatively, you can just use a mouse or trackpad to bring back the tab. Just right-click on the top bar of the Chrome browser in the empty space, and you should get Reopen closed tab option in the menu. Click on it to reopen the last closed browser tab. You can continue the steps to bring back all the closed tabs one after another in the same order they were last closed.

This shortcut changes the alignment of any highlighted text back to the left-hand side of the screen. As this is the default alignment, this shortcut only works on text aligned to the center or right-hand side of the screen.

Just a few months ago, Chrome, like all other browsers let you go back to the previous page in your history by tapping the Backspace key. Unfortunately, the backspace key is also the same key we use to delete a character in a text input field. There was an obvious clash between the keyboard shortcut and often, it resulted in lost form data that a user had filled in.

This article will show you how to import and export your web browser bookmarks to and from Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, and Safari to a portable HTML file. This enables you to back up your bookmarks and transfer them to another computer or even into a different web browser.

When you enable rocker gestures, you can navigate backwards and forwards through pages by rocking your fingers between the right and left mouse buttons. Simply click and hold one button, click the other, then release the first before releasing the second. With a little practice, you can speed through web pages with this gesture.

Chrome is a free web browser from Google available for both Windows and the Mac. To download the version of Chrome for your operating system, visit www.google.com/chrome/. This tutorial will cover some of the most commonly used shortcuts for browsing the Web with Google Chrome.

This is the option to go back a tab, switching to the tab on the left. With these two commands, you can cycle back and forth through every tab in the browser window very quickly. On keyboards that have PgUp/PgDn keys, you can use Control + PgUp/PgDn to switch tabs as well if you feel more comfortable doing it this way.

Chrome is the most popular web browser in the world thanks to its superior performance and features. However, many users have trouble when they lose or close chrome tabs by accident. This can cause users to lose important web pages, research, or sessions.

One reason Google cited for making the change is years of complaints about how hitting the backspace button, sometimes by accident, caused the browser to go back a page and inadvertently lose data entered into a text box. (Personally, that has not happened to me very often, but I understand the argument.)

Google software engineer Ojan Vafai has indicated that 0.04 percent of page views go back with the backspace key. But Chrome now has more than 1 billion active users, so 0.04 percent could mean 400,000 users. And backspace-for-back devotees have been vocal.

Fortunately, for the backspace-as-back loyalists, two recently launched Chrome extensions immediately restore the banned shortcut: Backspace to go Back from Adobe engineer Razvan Caliman, and Back to Backspace from Stripe engineer J Delaney.

Several Mac users need to back up and restore bookmarks created from Google Chrome and Firefox browsers. This article provides the steps to include bookmarks from Google Chrome and Firefox to inSync backups on a Mac device.

Note: By default, if the Desktop Viewer is maximized, ALT+TAB switches focus between windows inside the session. If the Desktop Viewer is displayed in a window, ALT+TAB switches focus between windows outside the session.

Hotkey sequences are key combinations designed by Citrix. For example, the CTRL+F1 sequence reproduces CTRL+ALT+DELETE, and SHIFT+F2 switches applications between full-screen and windowed mode. You can use hotkey sequences with virtual desktops in many, but not all, setups. For example, they work with your hosted applications.

Many shortcuts (such as .mw-parser-output .keyboard-keyborder:1px solid #aaa;border-radius:0.2em;box-shadow:0.1em 0.1em 0.2em rgba(0,0,0,0.1);background-color:#f9f9f9;background-image:linear-gradient(to bottom,#eee,#f9f9f9,#eee);color:#000;padding:0.1em 0.3em;font-family:inherit;font-size:0.85emCtrl+Z, Alt+E, etc.) are just common conventions and are not handled by the operating system. Whether such commands are implemented (or not) depends on how an actual application program (such as an editor) is written. Not all applications follow (all of) these conventions, so if it doesn't work, it isn't compatible.

Leaving tabs open because you want to go back to that page or remember where you saw something is the biggest cause of tab overload. Every tab you have open is sipping at your system resources, and they are cluttering up your browser.

It's a feature built into Google Chrome's bookmark feature. It works pretty much the same as bookmarks, but this is Google's way of separating website links you want to keep long-term (bookmarks) versus those you want to keep for a short period to refer back to (reading list).

A browser extension that I've been making a lot of use of lately is Auto Tab Discard. This is a free extension that suspends tabs that you're not using, freeing up those precious system resources, and then reanimates them when you switch back to them.

There's a way to get it to reload all the tabs that you previously had open. To do this go to Settings (the easiest way to do this is to type chrome://settings/ into the address bar and hit ENTER), then click on to On startup in the left-hand panel and select Continue where you left off.
