Create persistent file groups for each VS Code workspace and reopen the files you need in a predictable order.
Features
Create, rename, reorder, clear, and remove file groups.
Add the current file or all open text tabs to a group.
Open or close every file in a group in the saved order.
Keep group data and expanded state per workspace.
Preview a file with one click, or pin it with Open Tab or a double-click.
Display file-theme icons, file names, relative folders, full-path tooltips, and the number of files in each group.
Copy all absolute or workspace-relative paths from a group.
Follow the active editor in expanded groups.
Avoid duplicate file and group choices while adding files.
Getting started
Open a folder or workspace in VS Code.
Open Tab Groups Pro from the Activity Bar.
Run Tab Groups Pro: Add a New Group, or use Add All Opened Tabs to Group.
Use a group's inline and context-menu actions to add, reorder, open, close, copy, clear, or remove entries.
Groups are stored in VS Code workspace state and restored when that workspace is opened again.

Notes and limitations
Files must belong to an open VS Code workspace.
Only text-file tabs can be added through Add All Opened Tabs to Group.
Group data is workspace-specific and is not synchronized between machines by this extension.
