This is one of the best vertical tab managers available, and it handles multi-window workflows better than anything else I’ve tried. I use 22 Edge windows every day, and Tab Shelf has become a major part of my setup. There are a few missing features that would make it perfect for heavy multi-window users: • A default “All windows” filter so the panel doesn’t reset to “This window.” • Window cards that start collapsed by default when viewing all windows. • Remembering each window’s collapsed/expanded state. • Drag-and-drop window ordering so you can arrange your windows in a custom order. • Clicking a window header should activate that actual Edge window. One bug: custom window names don’t survive a full Edge restart. Everything else restores correctly, but the names revert to the first tab’s title. I’ve already sent these items to the developer. Tab Shelf is excellent overall, and I hope these improvements make it into a future update.

BUG. The link text disappeared.

This extension has become a big part of my daily workflow, organizing my tabs/windows, sleeping tabs, etc. I don't use 100% of the features but I love this for my needs. It's grown a lot since I started using it & always getting better!
