Work with computer programs impliesthat a person is well versed in this or that software. Unfortunately, sometimes even elementary application commands cannot be mastered. For example, users often wonder how to close an open tab in a browser. The answer to this question we will need to find further. We will learn how to work with tabs of Internet browsers. All this will help to quickly manage with any browser, saving time.
Tab operations
A tab is an open browser page. You can perform various operations with it. When considering how to close an open tab, it is important to be able to perform other actions with it.
Namely:
- open;
- restore;
- add to bookmarks;
- update;
- massively open and close.
All this should be able to do every user.Fortunately, similar commands are executed in all Internet browsers approximately equally. Therefore, the proposed instructions can be useful to each user.
Opening and updating
How to close an open tab? First, learn to open the pages and update them. Otherwise, there will simply be nothing to close!
To open a new page you need:
- Open the browser and click on the button (most often with a "+") located above the address bar.
- Press Ctrl + T.
- Click on the place where you want to open the RMB page, and then select the menu item "New masonry".
These techniques work flawlessly. And how to update the page? The following recommendations will help:
- Press on the keyboard Ctrl + F5 (F5, Fn + F5).
- On the active page, right-click on any place and click on "Update".
- The cursor click on the button with the image of a twisted arrow. It is located near the address bar of the browser.
That's all. Now you can think about how to close the recently opened tabs.
Simplest
To do this, as it is not difficult to guess, is allowed by different methods. Let's start with the simplest action. It is used in practice more often than others.
How to close the tab in "Chrome"?To do this, just click the cursor (left button) on the image of a cross on one page or another. More precisely, on the tab. This control is located in the upper right corner.
Similarly, it offers to close only one tab. Which one? The one that the user decides to remove.
Keys
Close the last tab, like any other,valid with certain shortcuts. Secret combinations simplify work with the OS and its programs. And browsers are no exception.
To close the open active page, you will have to press Ctrl + W. In some browsers, Ctrl + F12 is used.
Now I understand how to close the tab in the "Opera". This browser works with the combination "Control" + "Ef12". But the first combination here may work. In other browsers, it works exactly.
Mouse help
There is another rather interesting approach.It allows users to consider in more detail the process of completing work with some open pages. To implement it, we need the mouse and the cursor on the screen.
How to close an open tab? Right click on the selected page. In the menu that appears, just click the cursor on a particular team. It will be executed immediately, without confirmation.
What commands are proposed to perform in this way? For example:
- close the current page;
- complete work with all tabs to the right / left of the selected one;
- close all open sites except the current one;
- duplicate selected tab.
Fast, convenient and simple. This technique really helps. And even advanced PC users use it. After all, the key combination is not always known or has a place.
Recovery
We figured out how to close the tab (last and not only). If the user did this by mistake, then you will have to restore the mentioned control.
It’s best to do it this way:
- Open a new tab.
- Click on the tab of the PCM page.
- Click on "Restore closed ...".
A similar action occurs when you press Ctrl + Shift + T. Restoration is performed instantly.
Immediately and all
How to close open tabs at once? For example, if the browser already has many pages, provided that they need to get rid of?
The quickest and easiest solution is to closethe browser itself. All open tabs will close with it if the browser does not save recent sessions. This setting is usually disabled.
Close browser is proposed by applying the following techniques:
- press the button with a cross in the upper right corner;
- click on the start-up panel of the RMB on the open browser and select the appropriate command;
- open the "Task Manager", go to the "Applications" section, select the browser and click on "Finish".
In fact, working withInternet browsers and open pages are not the most difficult task. Even modern schoolchildren cope with it. Therefore, many of these recommendations are known to many.
Outcomes
We figured out how to close recently opened tabs. The proposed guidelines are relevant for computers, for almost all Internet browsers.
In some programs for working with the network you canset up shortcuts to perform certain actions. Appropriate add-ins will be stored in browser settings. This means that users themselves can set up key combinations for closing, opening and restoring open websites.
In the "Opera" you can set the settings for closing tabs by double clicking on them. Shift + click on the desired page also works here.
