Tabs to Windows Removal Guide

Tabs to Windows is promoted as an application for arranging and rearranging Google Chrome tabs. It has its own official website http://tabstowindows.com/, but the Download button is broken there, so it is impossible to get it from this page. Also, users come across this piece of software at the Chrome Web Store. It is presented there as a browser extension that will “let you quickly rearrange your multiple tabs window into separate Chrome windows based on a layout you choose.” Its description is quite appealing, so it is not surprising at all that some users click the button and install this extension willingly. It is not a very good idea to install this extension because it is untrustworthy. In fact, it has even been classified as a potentially unwanted program (PUP).

Specialists cannot consider it a fully trustworthy application because they suspect that it might gather information about users. According to them, it should not record any personal details like name, surname, and email address, but the chances are high that it will automatically record the non-personally identifiable information. It consists of such details as links clicked, the list of websites visited, and some technical details about the machine used. Although all these details are non-personal, you should still not let a suspicious extension gather information about you because you do not know where it will end up.
