Description from store
Close & Clean is a convenient extension that instantly closes all your open tabs and windows while automatically cleaning your browsing data. With just one click on the toolbar button (or by pressing Ctrl+Shift+X on Windows/Linux or Cmd+Shift+X on Mac), you can clean and close the browser. Choose what to remove on the options page—delete cache, cookies, history, and more!
Key Features
* One-Click Closure: Instantly close all open tabs and windows.
* Customizable Cleaning: Select exactly what to remove – cache, cookies, download history, form data, local storage, plugin data, passwords, etc.
Options:
* Keep Current Tab: Preserve the page you’re on while closing everything else.
* Pinned Tabs: Decide whether pinned tabs stay open or get closed—and even merge them in one window if desired.
* Confirmation Prompt: Ask for a confirmation (if you want) before the cleanup.
Access all settings in the “Options” page and adjust your preferences anytime.
How It Works
1. Click the “Close & Clean” Button to cleanup whatever you set it to clean and close all tabs and windows you set it to close. By default, it closes all open tabs and clears only the browser cache.
2. Right-click the extension icon → “Options” to decide which data gets removed. You can set the extension to:
* Empty the cache
* Clear app cache
* Remove cookies
* Delete download history
* Clear file systems
* Delete saved (autofill) form data
* Clear browsing history
* Remove indexed data
* Delete local storage data
* Clear plugin data
* Delete saved passwords
* Clear WebSQL data
3. Customizable Icon: Choose from several built-in icons to match your Chrome theme or even set your own 19×19 px icon.
Why Use Close & Clean?
- Protect Your Privacy: Quickly remove sensitive data before stepping away from your computer.
- Boost Performance: Clearing out cache and other data can help Chrome run faster.
- Streamlined Workflow: No more manually digging through browser settings every time you want a fresh slate.
To Get Started
1. Install Close & Clean from the “Add to Chrome” button.
2. Pin the extension to your toolbar if you want it always visible.
3. Click the toolbar button to instantly close your tabs and optionally clear various data.
4. Fine-Tune your preferences in the “Options” page to suit your workflow.
No Data Collection
Your privacy is our priority. Close & Clean does not track, collect, or store any personal information or browsing data. All cleaning tasks happen locally on your device. No information ever leaves your browser.
Permissions Needed
* tabs: Needed to close your open tabs and windows upon request.
* browsingData: Required to clear selected browsing data (e.g., cache, cookies, history) based on your preferences.
* storage: Allows saving of your custom settings (e.g., whether to clear cookies, pinned tab preferences, etc.).
We use these permissions only to fulfil the extension’s core functionality. No data is transmitted to external servers.

- (2018-12-12) Алексей Шурыгин: Nice simple extension, but built-in icons looks gaudy. I recommend to use this icon → https://openclipart.org/detail/311612/close-icon-grey

Всё просто и понятно. Лично у меня везде "галочки", кроме паролей, cookies, закрытия Chrome и Clear local storage data

- (2018-05-03) Adam Lezama: AMAZING EXTENSION! Really helps me save a lot of time!
- (2018-04-27) Lee Hodsdon: Had used the Click&Clean extension but it spams too often (opens a tab to advertise itself). It ran automatically when exiting Chrome. This extension does NOT run automatically on exit. The user must use the toolbar button to "close" Chrome (i.e., run the extension's cleanup routines followed but it unloading Chrome). Means I still have to look for a non-spammy Click&Clean alternative that *runs automatically* however Chrome is exited. Since I have to click this extension's toolbar (i.e., manual operation), I could just as well doing without it, exit Chrome, and then run CCleaner via shortcut (ccleaner.exe /auto) to perform the same manually instigated cleanup. Since Click&Clean can manage to run automatically on exit, so could this app. Maybe someday *automatic cleanup* will be an option in this app. It's now available now.
- (2018-03-26) Sean Ryan: This is a brilliant simple, useful extension - thanks! ***Enhancement Request*** I would find it very useful if there was an option "Open a new tab". I use pinned tabs. On completion of a period of browsing, I want to close all my tabs (except pinned) and have a new tab open ready for me to continue working - which currently I always do manually. This is to make sure that I don't inadvertently overwrite a pinned tab, especially when clicking on the bookmarks toolbar. Also, my custom new tab is always a good starting place for more browsing activity.

- (2015-06-02) Johny Why: with ALL options unchecked, the extension still caused chrome to forget my session tabs. Not usable for me.
- (2014-07-14) This should be built into chrome. Now I can exit and clean out everything in one click.
- (2014-06-21) Excellent little extension, so useful. Great feedback from the developer when I contacted him. Worthy of 5 stars.
