Answer 1

I solved the same problem recently with System.Windows.Forms.SendKeys Compared to your result - it's 4 times faster, but doesn't work with websites which use ctrl+l hotkey (for example StackOwerflow in edit mode). Depends on your needs :)

 public void WithSendkeys()
    {
        AutomationElement.RootElement
            .FindFirst(TreeScope.Children, new PropertyCondition(AutomationElement.ClassNameProperty, "Chrome_WidgetWin_1"))
            .SetFocus();
        SendKeys.SendWait("^l");
        var elmUrlBar = AutomationElement.FocusedElement;
        var valuePattern = (ValuePattern) elmUrlBar.GetCurrentPattern(ValuePattern.Pattern);
        Console.WriteLine(valuePattern.Current.Value);
    }

this code is working for me and get URL of active tab of chrome

 Process[] procsChrome = Process.GetProcessesByName("chrome");
            foreach (Process chrome in procsChrome)
            {
                // the chrome process must have a window
                if (chrome.MainWindowHandle == IntPtr.Zero)
                {
                    continue;
                }

                // find the automation element
                AutomationElement elm = AutomationElement.FromHandle(chrome.MainWindowHandle);
                AutomationElement elmUrlBar = elm.FindFirst(TreeScope.Descendants,
                  new PropertyCondition(AutomationElement.NameProperty, "Address and search bar"));

                // if it can be found, get the value from the URL bar
                if (elmUrlBar != null)
                {
                    AutomationPattern[] patterns = elmUrlBar.GetSupportedPatterns();
                    if (patterns.Length > 0)
                    {
                        ValuePattern val = (ValuePattern)elmUrlBar.GetCurrentPattern(patterns[0]);
                        Console.WriteLine("Chrome URL found: " + val.Current.Value);
                        listbox.Items.Add(val.Current.Value);
                    }
                }
            }

Here is the code:

AutomationElement root = AutomationElement.FromHandle(proc.MainWindowHandle);
Condition condNewTab = new PropertyCondition(AutomationElement.NameProperty, "Novo separador");
AutomationElement elmNewTab = root.FindFirst(TreeScope.Descendants, condNewTab);
TreeWalker treewalker = TreeWalker.ControlViewWalker;

// IF THROWS A ERROR HERE, LOOK AT THE AutomationElement.NameProperty ("Novo separador") - PUT THIS TEXT IN APROPRIATE LANGUAGE
AutomationElement elmTabStrip = treewalker.GetParent(elmNewTab);
                                                                            
Condition condTabItem = new PropertyCondition(AutomationElement.ControlTypeProperty, ControlType.TabItem);
foreach (AutomationElement tabitem in elmTabStrip.FindAll(TreeScope.Children, condTabItem))
{
    // HERE IS YOUR TABS!!!!
    ret.Add(tabitem.Current.Name);
}
