Description from extension meta
Go back with back space again
Image from store
Description from store
**Obsolete now that Google has published an official extension, switch to https://goo.gl/L30YZ7**
With this extension, use the backspace key to navigate back again (basically, a fix for https://crbug.com/608016). In addition, implements Shift-Backspace to navigate forward since v0.25.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
1. You need to reload your open tabs after installing the extension.
2. Due to Chrome limitations, this does not work on chrome:// pages such as the new tab page or settings [1], nor in the web store itself [2].

- (2018-10-18) Zdeněk Bína: Thank you! why should milions of people suffer because of few lamas deleting their forms? I'd let 'em burn... ;)
- (2017-12-10) Bob Flora: Perfect!

- (2017-04-09) Krittipot Raktawat: ทำไมมันใช้ไม่ได้อะ
- (2017-01-08) muffin: Still doesn't work.
- (2016-11-04) SEDATIVE X: Its the best Backspace extension of all :) It dont have the bug like the others, when u type a text in a Java chat window and want to delete the text ,and get u back to previous page... This one works like a charm :) Keep the good work up :)
- (2016-10-23) Etienne Levesque Guitard: It's too bad, non-native implementations really can't do the same as native. Just accidentally went back and lost all progress on iknow.jp. That never happened with native Chrome back key. Maybe it's time to dump Chrome or adapt to a new shortcut.
- (2016-10-11) Benjamin Peng (Ben): Broken on Version 54.0.2840.50 beta-m (64-bit): now even if you're in a text area, it still backs..
- (2016-08-24) Michel Angelo: only stupid people would lose their data when pressing backspace. thanks for giving it back
- (2016-08-16) Sydth asd: Doesn't work on all pages.
- (2016-08-15) Rim Dig: Сраный Гугл зачем-то отключил BackSpace в Хроме, это расширение возвращает его нормальную работу.
- (2016-08-14) Thank you.
- (2016-08-13) mermaidprincess: Actual rating is 4.5 stars I like this extension a lot, and it is one of my favorites, up there with uBlock. My only wish is that, as someone who designs graphics for websites and needs to constantly view the mobile version, it doesn't work on sites that have an m instead of www (i.e. sites in the format m.site.domain don't work as opposed to sites like www.site.domain). If that could be fixed I would definitely rate it 5 stars!
- (2016-08-12) Henry Vorselman: Works like a charm. Hope Google still fixes this, but for now this is great!
- (2016-08-10) Çinik Akçun: Works as expected. Good job!
- (2016-08-10) Sarah Kercz: I just added this extension and it's not working. The options button is non functional. How the hell is it even supposed to work?
- (2016-08-10) Roland Aigner: Thanks much! @google: screw you! >:(
- (2016-08-08) Michael Young: Awesome!
- (2016-08-03) Lee Packham: <3
- (2016-08-03) subbes Spookbungle: Just what I needed!
- (2016-07-31) Christian Schuman: It's really good, except sometimes when I'm filling out a form and try to delete, it'll override and go back to the previous page, even if I was inside a text box.
- (2016-07-30) Gordon Freeman (FREEMAN): THANK YOU, IT REALLY WORKS ! :)
- (2016-07-28) Patrick Stillhart: Thank you!
- (2016-07-26) Peter Ivanov: Thank you it works as expected

- (2016-07-08) Mohamed Omran: This is my life saver. I've been working for years on my keyboard pressing back. They're playing with my life just messing up my muscle memory like that. It's terrible.

- (2016-09-01, v:0.26) Tim S: Worked great...
Until I restarted Chrome, now it doesn't work at all. I have to manually remove the plugin and add it again for it to work. Using the latest version of Chrome on Mac os Yosemite. Anyone else have a similar issue? - (2016-08-10, v:0.26) Çinik Akçun: Release sourcecode
Could you release the sourcecode of this plugin on GitHub? - (2016-08-10, v:0.26) Sarah Kercz: Not working
added it and it did nothing. deleted it and trying again. i don't expect it to work this time either. - (2016-08-09, v:0.26) Anton Kovalenko: check first element of array at event.path
Hi, you might want to check whether first element of array at event.path is one of not allowed elements, some websites have weird js engine where event.target is controller rather then source element. p.s. Maybe publish it on github? - (2016-08-01, v:0.25) DeviantOllam: incompatible with flash
any flash-based web sites (which we all can safely admit need to die, yes) will experience problems with this extension. while typing into flash forms, the backspace key will not remove characters but instead navigates away from the page. we can all hope for a future wherein Flash is relegated to the dustbin of filth... but until that time, can this (VERY USEFUL!) extension sense when Flash is in use? - (2016-07-30, v:0.25) Luca Bergamin: Doesn't work in a flash game
Hi, this extension works great but when I try to play at this > blankmediagames[dot]com/TownOfSalem/ < and I try to delete something while I'm typing, it tries to go back. Can you fix it? - (2016-07-25, v:0.24) Pelle Pettersson: Aint working on 52.0.2743.82 m ( win 10 64-bit )
Aint working on 52.0.2743.82 m ( win 10 64-bit ) - (2016-06-27, v:0.24) Ismael Vallejo: No funciona
No funciona - (2016-06-09, v:0.24) daniel hodgkins: Shift + backspace
Is this key combination going to be implemented?
