Open link in same tab, pop-up as tab
Description from store

Forces Chrome to open new tabs instead of pop-up windows and/or links in the same tab by default instead of new or background tab.
If you hate when you click the link and Chrome opens it in a new or a new background tab, or even in a new window, then this extension is for you.

It forces Chrome to open links in the same tab by default instead of new or background tab, and new tabs instead of pop-up windows.

Version 2.6: - Fixed some cases where popups could not open same tab due to extension upgrade to manifest v3

Version 2.5: - Fix some bug
- Fix some page can't open popup same tab

Version 2.4: - Add new feature:
- View all link open popup.
- Manage all tabs current window.
- Share link of tab on Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook.

Broken in new chrome versions. Also it has some funny code background.js when facebook.com is opened but I don't know if that code is legit.

Alexander Gruber 2023-09-29

Used to love this extension, but now it's functionality is erratic and is killing my workflow. It just opens tabs up in random windows if it works at all. Version 2.8 is garbage.Guess I'll have to look for an alternative.

Tashi Sherpa 2023-09-28

Opens links in the same tab (reuses tab). I can't believe this has to be an extension though. Ridiculous. Minus one star until the developer addresses data collection.

The latest version starts to track users, which is a different claim to "Privacy practices" page: https://abpe.org/system/media_attachments/files/110/932/276/340/680/182/original/9d022707f9c0ca4a.png The "openlinkinsametab.com" domain is registered on 2023-07-20T05:43:05Z, according to whois.

Works great! Thanks for the update

Wilford Lubowitz 2023-07-31

Nice extension!

Adrian Bolboceanu 2023-07-31

Been using it day to day for at least 5 years, worked flawlessly. When the upgrade broke the functionality, I've emailed the developer and he kept me updated on the progress, and solved the issue quite quickly.

Not Bad. it's work.

Lê Viết Sơn 2023-07-30

Good extension, but currently having issues with a recent Chrome update. It seems like the extension doesn't fully load on some tabs, leaving the functionality erratic. Using Sergiy's test webpage I find that when it does not work, reloading the page will fix the issue (at least for that tab). Also had problems with Edge, meaning this is probably a bug introduced with a core Chromium change. Issue started somewhere in the last 2-3 weeks. Looking at our install logs vs release notes, this likely started with Chrome Stable 114.0.5735.198/199 at the absolute earliest. All further updates have continued to have the issue. This is on Win10 Pro x64. I've not tested Mac nor Linux yet. I was looking for a way to put in a bug report but this seems like the only option. Hopefully I can update this rating once fixed since the extension is perfect when working properly.

最近、機能せずにポップアップ表示になることがある

Jonathon Picone 2023-07-27

Worked great for years, does not work well anymore. Even with the new update it did not fix the issue.

Christopher Keim 2023-07-27

This extension was great until today, when it stopped doing the ONE thing it's meant to do. What happened, did you load it with spyware?

Frank Ki 2023-07-27

Partially broken with (since) Chrome 115.0.5790.102 (32-Bit). Same behaviour in Chrome 114 and 116 (beta). I think the latest extension update is causing the problem, not Google Chrome itself. Still not fixed in 2.5. Can you please make version 2.3 available for download as crx?

Joe Springer 2023-07-26

Loved this extension until it stopped working for me. I use it primarily for my tickets in TDX (team dynamics) and as of this week it has stopped working. When you open a new window it doesn't create it in a tab, it's quite frustrating after being so used to it working as intended!

Adam Eckert 2023-07-26

Looks like there is an issue with pop ups not opening in a new tab on the first attempt, if try a second time it works. This used to work with no issues, but started happening. using CRM MS Dynamics website.

Stacey Finelli 2023-07-25

Worked perfectly for years, however, recent update has caused it to fail. Very disappointing.

Jean Ellis 2023-07-25

As of last update, this doesnt work anymore

Emily Costello 2023-07-25

This was amazing for years & my entire work department uses it. However, in the past week, it hasn't been working. Looks like an update was recently done.

Megalomaniacat 2023-07-25

Worked flawlessly for years, now over the past two weeks it fails 50-75% of the time

Donnie Tremblay 2023-07-25

Use it for the entire company I work at, it works but every day we need to de-activate, and re-activate it to get it to work again after it stops working after a day.

Ono Lox 2023-07-24

It's not working anymore! I used it for years, and now don't work anymore.

Benyamin Limanto 2023-07-20

Not working for Office.com and onedrive.live.com

Byrnison lorek 2023-07-11

perfect.Translate in Chinese below Open pop-ups as a new tabs (Chrome extensions are not blocked)以新标签打开弹出窗口(Chrome扩展未被阻止) Give new tabs focus切换到新打开的标签页 "Reuse tab" - open links (except pop-ups) in a current tab instead of a new tab. Requires "On all sites" Site access under extension settings. Please refresh the page(s) if you have changed this option!“重用选项卡”-在当前选项卡而不是新选项卡中打开链接(弹出窗口除外)。需要在扩展设置下访问“所有网站”网站。如果您更改了此选项,请刷新页面!

I am constantly having to remove and re-add this extension because it stops working after a week or so.

David Linden 2023-06-27

Работает в яндексе, не работает на озоне :(

Jonathan Tremblay 2023-06-11

Thank you ! Was looking for something like this for a while ! Works great !

STEVEN C. 2023-06-07

Been using this extension for year. Should be built into Chrome IMO, very useful!

Victor TOULOUSE 2023-04-26

Perfect. Now I can stop Slack from opening its “huddles” in a very annoying popup window.

marius silviu stan 2023-04-15

Sensational!

Ed Ralston 2023-02-26

It does not work on ancestry.com

Argothiel 2023-02-20

One of the perfect extensions!

Scott 2023-02-17

This does not work for Reddit as a PWA. For whatever reason, click on notifications icon in Reddit opens a tab in a new window... so annoying. I thought this extension would force the opening of the notification in the PWA I have open already.

Suman Saurabh 2023-01-06

very handy

Aleksander Fijołek 2023-01-04

Very nice extension <3

Rifan Reindika 2023-01-01

NICE

Dave Gearing 2022-12-08

It was great but now has stopped working, I have the extension turned on but pop ups open in new window. I have toggle the extension off and back on to get it working again. Every time I reboot. Which is a real pain.
