Description from store
Link Control gives you the power to decide how links open in your browser, helping you to ensure a consistent and uncluttered browsing experience.
Always Open Links in the Same Tab:
Prevent websites like eBay, Etsy, and Temu from opening new tabs with every click. Enable this option to keep your browsing streamlined in a single tab.
Always Open Links in a New Tab:
If you prefer to open each link in a new tab, this feature is perfect for you. It’s ideal for research, comparison shopping, or simply keeping your main tab uncluttered.
Customisable Behaviour for Specific Websites:
Conveniently configure how links open on individual websites according to your preferences, giving you complete control.

- (2023-05-30) Z S: It works with many sites but doesn't work with temu.com.
- (2022-12-20) 1030 Rassal Kumar: It works well for simple tab management but found it difficult to use with 20+ tabs open. I switched to Findr because it had features for extensive tab management and let me search for my used links saving me a lot of time. Worth a shot. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/findr-find-documents-mana/hbgjcippdhmfpkpfcnpimempnkimhein
- (2022-12-07) Poe: Didn't create new tabs on any combination of settings. The interface was nice and professional looking so I gave it 2 stars.
- (2022-01-07) Jo .B: Brilliant. So simple but so needed. I kiss you!
- (2021-11-23) Floggedhorse: Works perfect, especially on eBay and AliExpress. But sadly to late for ebay, I've started using other sites :)
- (2021-11-03) B P: Thank you, thank you, thank you! I configured it for eBay; now my searches work exactly like they used to. Links open in the same tab, and the back arrow in either Chrome or eBay returns me to where I left off on the search results page.
- (2021-10-31) S. M. Wolfkind: Ohmigosh, thank you SO MUCH! Found this through an Etsy community thread that I discovered while madly researching how to make Etsy stop opening links in new tabs. I'm especially desperate now that Amazon has taken up the strategy. My laptop only has so much memory and Chrome is a real hog for it under normal circumstances! I can't have 20 Etsy tabs open on top of the ones I want open, and still have a functioning computer. The progressive adoption of this website behavior by other sites is another maddening slice of control taken away from the users and I resent it. THANK YOU for returning control to us!!

- (2020-12-06) Kerry Hogan: Worked in Brave!!! There is another extension out there that is supposed to this but it never worked for me. I almost gave up when I happened upon this one. Thanks!!!
