Customisable hotkeys for basic browser actions.
HOW TO USE:
After installation, works only in NEW or RELOADED tabs. Those tabs must be WEB PAGES too. Click on the icon in location bar to disable/enable for a page.
To change options, go to Extensions and click on Options for this extension. Or right-click on icon(if present) in location bar and click Options.
LIMITATIONS:
This extension works by plugging JavaScript into pages you load. As such, it cannot change system settings like disabling default hotkeys of Chrome. It also works only when you are in tabs with actual web pages, and not every web page works (see your luck :P). Finally, some shortcut combinations may not work. Right now, these are limitations that cannot be overcome.
CHANGES:
0.13 had a bug with saving options. Fixed now.
0.14 had some options not working. Fixed now.
0.20 change the way the blocklist works
Recent changes made because Google required developers to make some changes. As it has been so long since I worked on extensions, I might miss out some things. I won't be maintaining this extension much, though.
0.21 remove host permission
DESCRIPTION:
Enable/disable hotkeys and change shortcuts for browser actions. Default keys are from Gamer's Control.
You can enable/disable hotkeys temporarily by clicking on the icon in the omnibar.
Blocklist interface is only for advanced users. You can specify the URL where the hotkeys will be disabled.
After installation, it will only work on new or reloaded tabs.

AutoControl seems like a better extension (this is not an endorsement and I've not used it myself)

- (2021-11-02) John Rice: Ерунда какая-то. Не понятно, что означают цвета, сделали бы тогда серым, если не активно и синим, как при выделении, если активно. Да и вообще, лучше было бы иметь список необходимых действий и добавлять и удалять их. Поэтому удаляю.
- (2020-11-29) Мой лучший друг: Неработает
- (2020-10-24) Tushu Rawat: helped me change tabs with only 1 click
- (2019-06-07) Chris Vydas: this is horrible, one of the worst i have tried of late, i am simply looking for an extension that can change tabs left and right and because i find chromes default CTRL+pgup/pgdn awkward and would rather use the arrow keys. i thought i found the perfect add-on when i saw this and installed it, but no. doesn't work at all, quite useless really.
- (2018-10-05) Michał Urbanek: To me that is a new way to think about navigation on page. So I give 5 star.

- (2017-07-03) Juli August: non of my custom hotkeys work
- (2017-05-23) Keereal Yo: Невозможно отключить ненужные функции - когда печатаешь текст в гугле или где угодно иногда срабатывают эти "слишком горячие клавиши" переоткрывая вкладки и даже закрывая их... не очень удобно
- (2017-05-17) Андрей Дм. Майданский: то, что надо - закрывает вкладки по Insert
- (2016-11-26) Игорь Переверзев: некоторые клавиши работают на некоторых вкладках
- (2016-08-17) Алексей Поздняков: После обновления хрома (где убрали возврат назад клавишей Backspace) эта программа единственный способ вернуть все как было. Спасибо
- (2016-08-15) Dmytro Dmyterko: Не работает. Версия хром: 52.0.2743.116 m. Не знаю с чем связано. Нет назначения возврата на предыыдущую страничку.
- (2016-08-10) Natalija St: мне надо было забить Backspace на возврат предыдущий страницы, помогло!! но нафига это расширение срабатывает когда я пишу сообщение, полнейший бред
- (2016-05-29) Yevgen: Useless.
- (2016-01-08) Ruslanmailru mailru: пустое место. Не знает ничего про колесо мыши.
- (2016-01-06) Dilon Pait: Я не нашел то, что мне надо. Например я желал назначить кнопку F7 для функции "закрыть все вкладки". И что? Как это сделать?
- (2015-11-23) Richard Reijmers: Dunno why I installed this but got rid of it verrry quickly
- (2015-09-04) Alek Jan: Without ability to disable specific hotkeys it's a terrible extension. I just want to be able to use 2 extra hotkeys, not all of them.
- (2015-06-12) cwolffgurl: when i open multi tabs to do the same function it stops working. need to be able to toggle the "disabled on input fields"
- (2015-03-19) spera: Well this might have been user error but the default hotkeys are stupid and useless. When I hit 'C' it would close my tab. It CLAIMS to not do it when it is in an input field but apparently that detection is very very flawed. PLEASE FIX THIS SINCE IT'S A VERY NICE PROGRAM !
- (2015-02-24) Peter Zheng: 相當實用、好用!我的Chrome版本 40.0.2214.115,這工具是設定自訂熱鍵迄今沒問題~ 希望增加更多熱鍵設定~~
- (2014-12-02) Максим Кузнецов: Вообще не помню чтобы ставил эту хрень. Она у меня всегда срабатывала когда я пытался написать сообщение в ВК - печатать было просто невозможно!!!
- (2014-11-28) Martin Huckaba: Meh. I wish it included a hotkey to minimize the browser. :/
- (2014-01-11) Владислав Б: Not worked
- (2013-09-18) Дмитрий: Все отлично! Только побольше бы разных функций для горячих клавиш, например вставить и сразу перейти, искать далее и пр.
- (2013-09-03) Daniel Norman: Well this might have been user error but the default hotkeys are stupid and useless. When I hit 'C' it would close my tab. It CLAIMS to not do it when it is in an input field but apparently that detection is very very flawed. Uninstalling right away. This extension does more harm than good.
- (2013-06-16) Захар Чурсинов: Thank you for the fast update. Can you add an option that would have removed the icon from the address bar?
- (2013-05-15) Maksim Necomba: Tried to set ALT+Q for closing TAB - doesn't work... Wanna use Ctrl+N to create a new tab - impossible...
