Love this extension, but as with others, started crashing Chrome (Version 142.0.7444.135) recently. Sometimes works for a while, then crashes again.

Hello. I just updated Chrome. Now every time a pop-up pops up, closes chrome entirely. Is this an issue with the extension, with my computer or Chrome?
Wil Capps
Normally works great. Sometime in the last week, something has started making this crash Chrome. I am no longer seeing crashes after disabling only this extension. The issue doesn't seem to impact the "show as tab" native option. Happy to update review after it's fixed because I'm struggling to find a good alternative.

Great extension, love it. But to confirm a previous review, this version (1.2.2) crashed Chrome (version 142.0.7444.60) when moving a pop up to a new tab.
Derek Matuszewski
Current version of the extension is causing Chrome 142.0.7444.60 to crash when it is trying to move new windows to a tab.

Does exactly what I need it to. Thanks, Dev!
Molly Pfaff
Works on Outlook for web, which is exactly what I needed. Thank you!! Now I can double-click emails to send them to new tabs.
Ken Kassmel
Only works half the time. First click will often open in a new window. need to close it out, then click again, then it will open a tab. Very frustrating. The old extension worked great, and for whatever reason, it was discontinued.
Juan Camacho
First time a link is clicked on it's opens in a new window. Will open in a tab after closing the window and clicking the link again. I would love for it to work 100% of the time.

WORKS HALF THE TIME.

could be nice to have the option to be asked everytime if we want the pop-up or opening to a tab. sometimes I prefer the pop-up... the other extension that did this isn't available anymore

I'm gonna cry. Such a huge timesaver.

It even open in a tab pop-ups from search fields (that you can't middle or ctrl click). Great! suggestion: open the pop-up inside the same tab group.

Missing blacklist/whitelist for exceptions Tab should open adjacent to the popup origin, not at the end of my tabs
Robert Russell
My old extension worked like 100% of the time but this one like works 25% of the time. But the old one was manifest v2 so chrome disabled it.
Michael Chang
Works well - however, I have a popup that I do want/need to go as pop-up (that doesn't work right when open as tab). Is there a way to add "exception" sites that would open as Popup? For now - my workaround - is to turn the extension on and off as needed.
Mark Wilke
Thank you! It does exactly what I wanted it to do. Thank you again!
Bonbon Plim
It doesn't always work and it does not work for all. needs updating.
Derek Matuszewski
Yes! I was using a different extension to do this but it hasn't been updated to use the new MV3 but it looks like this one is updated and works great! Thank you!
Juhani
I wish it had an option to open new tab next to the current tab, not the rightmost tab.
Ian Geraris
gets the job done!! Thanks :)

WORKS, THANKS A LOT. DON'T CHANGE IT PLEASE.

Sadly this extension is broken in my Opera GX for Dynamics 365, I have to move to OperaOne and it works. Please fix the extension for OperaGX it's a little bit better than OperaOne. Still 5 stars for you guys, I can't believe my coworker are not using this and have to work with all those pop up windows all the time.
