Hey there, fellow FreshStarters!
Guess what? FreshStart just got a fresh update – version 1.7 is out now, and even I'm surprised, lol! If you're new to FreshStart, make sure to catch up on what you've missed with our previous posts.
What's New?
Visually, things haven't changed much, but under the hood, it's like we've given FreshStart a whole new engine to run on, all to keep up with the latest Manifest V3.
*Manifest V3 is a new requirement from Chrome web store if extensions want to stay on the store.
Patch 1.7.1 Updates: (RELEASED! 17th May)
Hi, everyone, the comment section is not the official area to report bug, please email to contactus@visibotech.com.
TooManyTabs for Chrome
Oh, and speaking of Manifest V3, I've also upgraded TooManyTabs (TMT), another Chrome's relics extension. If you're into that sort of thing, be sure to check it out!
Enjoy!

This seems to be broken after the new release. Only loads the first tab now...
here too , only the first tab.....
The same, only the first tab ...
It was already broken for me before the update, only loading one window out of the 5 I was saving most of the times (sometimes it opened up to 3 windows, sometimes it simply didn't open any window). That started around the time Youtube started doing some anti ad-block stuff, so that felt like Google Chrome broke something with the extension.
Had been looking for another extension that does the same thing, but all of the others load up fake tabs that require an extra step to load, which really annoys me. So I had been left opening reopening my tabs manually for the last couple months... Glad to see at least that this extension isn't completely forgotten.
Cannot import a session from JSON file anymore... possibly broken with the upgrade.
Any chance that saving tab groups will be added? :)
I found that it still works if you middle click rather than left click
Lost all my previous session snapshots. All five crash recovery snapshots are completely blank. Any ideas where I can pick them backup? These are tabs/windows that never got saved to sessions.
Ok, so I think I found the data in a log file located in AppData\Local\.....
Now, how to import back into FreshStart. Most of the data in the log file is unintelligible but I'm assuming the extension can read it. Might have to be a previous version of the extension though??? Any advice?
hi! i've been having issues i love this extension for loading saved tabs, but the past few days only 1 tab is loading as opposed to the 5 -10 tabs that should be
the best extension to manage sessions! Thank you for the update
this extension has been very helpful all these years using it, wow I didn't realize it hasn't been updated for over a decade until now! There goes the saying, if it ain't broke don't fix it!
It is unfortunate that you broke snapshots. I have found this extension handy for recovering from various crashes, but it would seem because of this change, in combination with having to do a chromebook recovery this afternoon, that I have lost my previous session with hundred of tabs.
Unfortunately can't load any saved session newer then April 12. Nothing happens on click.
I have to go to bookmarks and manually open saved tabs in a New Window. Please share the 1.7 release or fix the latest one.
@Lazy, please update to latest 1.7.1 version.
Best chrome extension EVER! Can you please add a search function to it? ;-)
Beyond words, I am beyond words so appreciative that you time and effort for an extension you made many years ago, that you were fully justifed to just forget about and move on, but you decided to make sure it would keep working for all of us! Thanks, from the "bottom of my heart"(never understood that metaphor), truly I am grateful; I'll look around thoroughly for donation options now; it won't be much, but you've more than earned it. I am certain.
