How do you open a whole folder of bookmarks at once in Arc?
I seems as if it is only possible to do it one by one.

I never did like that even on my both daily browsers, I am sorry
What other browsers has the ability for that? I would guess Vivaldi

I think you misunderstand since everyone of the big popular browsers has that feature.
What i mean is; when i open a folder, and lets say have 10 URL:s in it, i can open all at once if i so wish so i get 10 sites at the top bar in the browser.

With Arc i could not find that feature

Arc for Windows - 2023/2024 Release Notes​

v.1.2.0 (May 16, 2024)​

• We're making updating faster!
  • The update banner in the Sidebar will only show once the update has been downloaded, so this means if you click on the banner the app will terminate and restart immediately!
  • Updating via Arc menu > Check for Updates is now a two click process. The first click will download the update, and then the second click will restart the app.
• We’ve updated the Pinned Folder icons! Pinned Folder icons will now be drawn in full color instead of just a monochrome outline and and we’ve added an open/close animation.
• You can now open the Command Bar to show the current URL with Alt+D in addition to Ctrl+L
• You can now open the Arc menu using Alt+F
• You can now open the Arc menu when the Sidebar is hidden and no web content is in view
• We’ve added the ability to remove a tab from your Favorites using Ctrl+T and then typing “unfavorite tab”
• The top toolbar can now be dynamically resized fixing an issue where toolbar elements (pinned extensions, window controls, URL bar) would overlap at smaller window widths
• We fixed an issue where the back/forward history drop down would persist after using Ctrl+Tab to quickly switch away and then back to the tab where the history drop down was opened -
• We fixed an issue that prevented Arc windows from closing using the window controls or Alt+F4
• We now show a warning dialog if your processor does not meet our minimum requirements. You'll still be able to use Arc for Windows, but you'll likely experience issues. Learn more at arc.net/requirements
• Various crash fixes and performance improvements

I had to file a request for the theme feature setting. For some reason, they stripped it out.

You can't install theme from the Chrome Web Store.

Arc for Windows - 2023/2024 Release Notes​

v.1.5.0​

• GitHub Live Folders: We’re introducing GitHub Live Folders that automatically compile and organize PRs. To get started, create a Pull Request, and let Arc magically create a new folder called “Pull Requests.” Watch your Live Folder stay up-to-date automatically, compiling PRs as they’re created and clearing them out once they’re completed. For a more tailored view, right-click on the Live Folder to filter and configure as needed. Big thanks to Freddy and Connor for making this happen!
• Audio Player Integration for Mini Player: Thanks to Alexandra, if you have a video playing in the Mini Player (Picture-in-Picture) and dismiss it by clicking the X, the video will be dismissed but the audio can still be played in the Sidebar Audio Player. This is perfect for moments when you just need the audio from a video playing in the background, such as YouTube podcasts, video lectures, and more.
• Peek Tab Dismissal: You can now dismiss a Peek tab using the Esc key. Kudos to Miko for this convenient update.
• Print Dialog Dismissal: Thanks to Miko, you can also use the Esc key to dismiss Print dialogs.
• Enhanced Drag and Drop Support: We’ve added support for more drag-and-drop data formats. Due to Miko’s work, you can now do things like drag and drop links into your Sidebar, downloads from the Sidebar library (bottom left corner), and songs into a Spotify playlist.
• Pinned Tab Dragging Issue: Alexandra fixed an issue where dragging a Pinned Tab out of your Sidebar to create a new window would not result in the tab being selected in the new window.
• Accessibility Updates: The UI elements and web contents now provide more information in accessibility tools such as Accessibility Insights and Inspect.exe. Kudos to Miko for prioritizing accessibility.
• Unexpected Space Focus Switch: Thanks to Darin, we’ve resolved an issue where selecting a tab in one Space would switch focus to another Space unexpectedly.
• Extension Popup Size Issue: Miko fixed an issue that caused extension popups to display at an incorrect size.
• Google Pay Functionality: With help from Mark, we fixed an issue that prevented Google Pay from working as expected.
• Dev Tools Cloning Fix: Thanks to Alexandra, we resolved an issue where undocked dev tools would recursively clone if two or more dev tools windows are opened.
• Dev Tools ‘F12’ Fix: Miko’s handiwork helped us fix a crash triggered holding F12 when dev tools are open.
