How to fix "nothing happens on the first click", plus input formats, limits and privacy.

Why nothing happens on the first click

Your browser blocked the pop-ups

Every modern browser blocks pages from opening windows on their own. This tool relies on window.open, so the very first run gets blocked once. That is a browser safety feature, not a broken tool.

  1. After clicking Open all, look for a small crossed-out window icon at the far right of the address bar.
  2. Click it and choose Always allow pop-ups from openurls.top.
  3. Click Open all once more. You will not be asked again.

If it gets blocked partway through, the tool does not fail silently: it stops, tells you how many were opened, and shows a continue button.

Allowing pop-ups, browser by browser

Chrome
  1. Click the blocked pop-up icon at the right of the address bar and choose Always allow pop-ups from openurls.top.
  2. Or: three-dot menu → SettingsPrivacy and securitySite settingsPop-ups and redirects → add https://openurls.top under Allowed.
Edge
  1. Click the blocked pop-up icon at the right of the address bar → Always allow pop-ups and redirects from openurls.top.
  2. Or: three-dot menu → SettingsCookies and site permissionsPop-ups and redirectsAllow → add https://openurls.top.
Firefox
  1. When a pop-up is blocked Firefox shows a banner at the top. Click OptionsAllow pop-ups for openurls.top.
  2. Or: menu → SettingsPrivacy & Security → under Permissions, Exceptions next to Block pop-up windows → add https://openurls.topSave Changes.

Firefox is the strictest of the majors. Even after allowing it, keep the delay at 400 ms or higher.

Safari (macOS / iOS)
  1. macOS: Safari menu → SettingsWebsitesPop-up Windows → set openurls.top to Allow.
  2. iOS: Settings app → Safari → turn off Block Pop-ups.

Safari usually allows only one new window per click. Use the 1 second delay, or switch to Chrome for a smoother run.

Brave
  1. Click the Brave Shields icon in the address bar → Advanced controls → set Block pop-ups to Allow all pop-ups, or allow just this site.
  2. Or: SettingsPrivacy and securitySite and Shields SettingsPop-ups and redirects → add https://openurls.top.
Opera
  1. Click the blocked pop-up icon at the right of the address bar → Always allow pop-ups from openurls.top.
  2. Or: SettingsAdvancedPrivacy & securitySite settingsPop-ups and redirects → add https://openurls.top.

Input formats

What you can paste
  • One link per line. Spaces, commas and tabs also work as separators.
  • You can paste a whole paragraph of mixed text - links are extracted and the rest is ignored.
  • Links without a scheme default to https://: example.com becomes https://example.com. A link already written as http:// is left alone, never downgraded.
  • Ports and paths are supported, for example http://192.168.1.1:8080/admin.
  • .txt / .csv files can be imported with the Import txt / csv button.

FAQ

How many links can I open at once?
The tool itself has no limit - your browser and RAM do. Keep a single batch under 50, and above 30 raise the delay to 400 ms or more. That noticeably reduces stalling and skipped tabs.
Are my links uploaded or logged?
No. Parsing and opening happen entirely inside your browser. The page makes no network requests and ships no analytics. If you tick Remember input, the text is stored only in your own browser's localStorage - untick it and clear the box to remove it.
Why did a link redirect somewhere else?
When you enter an http:// address, the target site may force HTTPS on its own. That redirect is set by the destination server. The tool never rewrites a scheme you typed explicitly.
Are duplicate links removed?
Yes, by default. Untick Remove duplicates if you need repeats - for example several links carrying different query strings. Links with different parameters are not treated as duplicates.
Can I control the order?
Yes: ascending, descending or random. Descending pairs well with browsers that insert new tabs at the front; random helps when you want to spread requests out.
Does it work on mobile?
It runs, but mobile browsers handle multiple tabs very differently and iOS Safari typically opens only one window per tap. Bulk opening is really a desktop task.
Is there a keyboard shortcut?
Yes. Press Ctrl / + Enter inside the text box to start opening.
