Google Chrome allows you to merge a single tab from another window, but what if both windows have multiple tabs which too exhausting if we had to move them one by one?

Luckily, you can merge two or more Chrome windows with multiple tabs each without having to move every tab manually. So, how to do that?

Make sure you are using the modern versions of Google Chrome to get the features mentioned in the following guides. If not, please update Chrome first!
