# removeWindow(_:)

Removes a window from the tab group.

## Declaration

```swift
func removeWindow(_ window: NSWindow)
```

## Parameters

- `window`: The window to remove from the tab group. This window must already be a member of the tab group. Raises an NSInternalInconsistencyException if the window is not a member of the tab group.

## Discussion

Discussion You can use removeWindow(_:) to explicitly remove a window from the tab group. Windows are implicity removed from their associated tab groups when they order out.
