Do you want to just enumerate all opened page, check url for each of them, attach to this which are unwanted and close them ?

Did you check out the functions in @SmOke_N's post? These could be used as the basis for your task.

No.

Instead checking url you can check anything, even html content.

Remark: this is only my not tested conception - code exist , byt only in my mind

What I intended to say was that you should be able to do this if you know the desired URL to keep. B)

Agreed that it could also be done using other criteria.

Simple example:

#include <IE.au3>

Local $sURL = "https://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/188551-close-all-ie-except-the-one-that-is-attached/"
$oIE = _IECreate($sURL, 1)
;~ Begin Adding Example Tabs
    $oIE.Navigate("https://www.google.com", 0x0800)
    $oIE.Navigate("https://www.youtube.com", 0x0800)
    Sleep(5000)
;~ End Adding Example Tabs

Local $i = 1, $oIETab
While 1
    $oIETab = _IEAttach("", "instance", $i)
        If @error = $_IEStatus_NoMatch Then ExitLoop
    If Not StringInStr(_IEPropertyGet($oIETab, "locationurl"), $sURL) Then
        _IEQuit($oIETab)
        ContinueLoop
    EndIf
    $i += 1
WEnd

Hey, I'm trying to use this but the extra tabs won't close and I'm getting this error in the output:

$sTmp = $oWindow.type
$sTmp = $oWindow^ ERROR

Did something change?

The problem with the script is that sometimes URL is changed while loaded.  So if you search for the original URL it may not exist as is, but it is still loaded under a different URL. So try this, it is working well for me :

#include <IE.au3>

Local $sURL = "https://www.autoitscript.com/"
$oIE = _IECreate($sURL)
$sURL = _IEPropertyGet($oIE, "locationurl") ; make sure you got the right URL
;~ Begin Adding Example Tabs
$oIE.Navigate("https://www.google.com", 0x0800)
$oIE.Navigate("https://www.youtube.com", 0x0800)
Sleep(5000)
;~ End Adding Example Tabs

Local $i = 1, $oIETab
While 1
  $oIETab = _IEAttach("", "instance", $i)
  If @error = $_IEStatus_NoMatch Then ExitLoop
  If _IEPropertyGet($oIETab, "locationurl") <> $sURL Then
    _IEQuit($oIETab)
    Sleep (500)
    ContinueLoop
  EndIf
  $i += 1
WEnd

ps.  I added some sleep after _IEQuit to give time to the script to close tab.
