If you're someone who keeps multiple Chrome windows open to juggle workflows, research, or personal projects, you've likely heard of or used Tablerone, a once-reliable Chrome tab manager. But as its users increasingly report frustrations like lost tab sessions, unreliable backups, and subpar customer support, many are looking for alternatives to this tool.
Enter Partizion, a session and tab manager built to resolve the very issues tab hoarders and productivity hackers face. This blog post will explore the problems with Tablerone, how you can recover lost tabs, and why Partizion is the best alternative for seamless, worry-free tab management.
Tablerone initially gained traction as a helpful Chrome extension to organize tabs. It's free to use and works great for a few tab sessions. But as recent reviews reveal, it’s now losing users’ trust due to critical flaws. Here’s a look at the most common issues users face, based on real feedback:
A major pain point has been lost saved sessions and tags.
“I lost all my saved sessions, including tags, and none of the recovery steps worked. My settings backed up data hourly, but everything disappeared without explanation.”
– Former Tablerone User
Even though modern users rely on these tools to juggle complex workflows, data losses have left many at risk of losing important tabs. Unfortunately, Tablerone’s poor backup storage architecture repeatedly fails to meet user expectations.
Imagine losing weeks of important tabs and getting no response from support. That’s a recurring theme in reviews of Tablerone.
"I contacted support twice and followed up without receiving any help for getting back my data."
When data recovery is critical for productivity, poor customer service deals a final blow to the usability of any tab management software.
For users managing hundreds of tabs, Tablerone struggles to perform.
"After opening over 200 tabs, it completely stopped working. I had to reinstall the extension, and when I did, I lost all my lists and tags."
This unreliability under high usage holds users back when they need robust solutions to handle their projects and research effortlessly.
Bottom Line? If you depend on Tablerone for Chrome management, you may already feel the cracks growing in its foundation.
Thankfully, there’s hope for lost tabs and a better way forward with Partizion.
If Tablerone has failed you and you're scrambling to recover lost tabs, here are some methods you can try:
On Windows, press Ctrl + Shift + T.
On Mac, press Command + Shift + T.
This shortcut works to reopen recently closed tabs right from Chrome.
This method won’t restore organized sessions or groups, but it’s useful for retrieving specific tabs.
As a last resort, you can try exploring Chrome’s local storage and may be able to retrieve last-session data.
C:\Users\<YourUsername>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\
/Users/<YourUsername>/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default/
Look for “Session” files in the directory. Be warned, though—this approach is messy, and success isn’t guaranteed.
