That is not a feature that is implemented at this time. We are looking into it though for future updates.

Saving and opening groups is the reason i downloaded this now instead of waiting for Windows to release their version. For me, saving and opening groups is 100% the value behind why I would have bought this. 

I just blew a trial for nothing.

As IslandDog says this is something we are looking into.  The trial lasts 30 days so I could well see at least a beta update containing enhancements being available before that expires.

It would be interesting to know your specific use cases and how you would like to see it working as it seems everyone has their own ideas on how it would work for their use case.

E.g - on my work laptop, everyday I open outlook, onenote, excel documents - These are my base apps that open on a daily basis & would like to be grouped together.

So ideally there needs to be an option on the 3 dots (settings of my tabbed group) to save current tab group. This can be saved as a desktop icon on the desktop or location of choice or to a system try icon/menu with a given tabbed name.

Now when I start my laptop every day, I can then either double click on the desktop grouped icon (similar to a program) or the system tray menu option (saved groups -> $name of group) to which groupy will then launch/start all the apps/docs per group.

Hope that makes sense

I see 2 ways I'd use it almost daily.

1 is to group documents and programs together i'm using for a specific project.

2 is for creating presentations which start with documents which are templates I fill in and then save to client folders. If I could open a group to have all the files I need and then save the docs under new names (after I add client specific data) in a different folder it would save a lot of time.

I wouldn't have to start each doc one at a time or look for all the docs I'm using in a specific project.
