Setting for SSMS to start with same pinned tabs as a previous session?

286 Views Asked by At

I can't find where this is possible. There's a similar setting in SSMSBoost but it's not saving the pinned tabs I created in this session.

Sometimes when the program crashes, it asks if I want to save what I have open, but it looks like it's asking to save each tab individually which isn't exactly what I'm talking about.

I'm just looking for many open tabs I have pinned and set in a specific order, to open up that way on my next startup. Possible?

Thanks!

Sorry to resurrect this, I got here searching for a way to always have RedGate SQL Search pinned when I open SSMS. I'm not aware of a way to have it reopen all tabs that were there when it closed, but I would love this feature myself. I'm also not sure about the pinned tabs.

This thread discusses the solutions some more, and another answer references some possible tools that do this.

I often create solutions for saved sets of queries, each solution geared towards a specific project, task or bug research, and it's handy to be able to open the solution and have all those tabs pop up.
