I love it with the exception that one day, when it started to lag (my fault for opening up 400+ unsaved tabs), I realized there is no "Close All and Don't Save Changes" functionality. Clicked the "No" button around 80 times, searched for some registry or appdata hack to see if it could get rid of the rest which didn't work, and then sadly went back to clicking No for the rest. I'll try to avoid that in the future.


It keeps temp files in one of the appdata folders. You could just blow them away and it would just remove them from the tab list. The issue is do you want to keep that stuff or not. Also ctrl-w and n. should work fine too.


Looks like this has changed at some point :)

I just tried this, opened a bunch of tabs and edited the text in them all.

Right click tabs, close all to the right, left or close all but this.

Then it shows a message box asking to save, click No To All.

All tabs closed :)
