This extension is just a simple on/off switch. Click to pause history logging. Click again to resume.
When activated, it clears the log while you are browsing. That's all it does.

- (2023-11-18) Bhiab Msga: Extremely bad since I turned it on couple days ago (again) I feel like my search engine has been hijacked keeps sending me to different search browsers I tried to delete it but it wasn't allowing me it kept closing the browser ever since I turned it off the browser doesn't randomly go to different search engines and it doesn't say something like Searchgate
- (2023-02-10) Soham Bhadra: Of course it pauses history, but there is one fatal flaw: if you previously visited a website when your history was on (extension disabled), then pause your history (extension enabled) and visit it again, previous visits will DISAPPEAR from Chrome history, with no way to retrieve them! This is terrible, since I need to find a way to be able to reload a page WITHOUT it entering the browser history AND PRESERVING previous visits! Too bad there is no way to do this, especially as Chrome has become much more aggressive about updating itself, and there is no way I can hide that Update button in the corner for too long. I would have been comfortable about updating Chrome *without* overwriting my last visits to my open tabs by using this extension, if only previous visites WERE NOT REMOVED! I hope you will be able to fix this if you can, since it is a most infuriating behaviour of Chrome.

- (2022-04-29) vodkins75: Не работает в Хроме от слова совсем! Ставил специально, чтобы не запоминалась история загрузок (мне нафиг не нужно неделями хранить загруженные файлы в списке, тем более в папке загрузки их уже нет, Хром рулит йопт). Так ваш замечательный плагин не просто ничего не делает, он наоборот восстанавливает список загрузок, удалённый вручную. Это прикол такой? Или может я чего-то не понял и в двух чекбоксах запутался? Бессмысленная пустота в вакууме!

- (2019-12-23) aws6241: "History On/Off" plugin for Google Chrome has a serious security flaw. Website history doesn't show while browsing. However, all one has to do is close Chrome and then re-open it. Then, when you click "Menu/History/Recently Closed" in the upper right corner of Chrome, all of your previous tabs re-open. This extension doesn't "prevent" history from being collected. It just temporarily conceals it until the next time you open Chrome. Google Chrome Version 79.0.3945.88 (Official Build) (64-bit) Windows 10

- (2018-10-03) JON Cunningham: This extension is not working for CHROME to click to previous pages.. But it does works for portable SRWare IRON Browser. NOTE to developers, You had such a great extension, and now its all going south. Please restore your extension. .I can use it with IRON but not w Chrome browser, and most former users use Chrome. I will give you time to restore your project and then re-evaluate this with my rating.

- (2018-06-09) Miles Woodham: This extension has been great for a very long time and I appreciate the work it took to create it. Though as others have mentioned I can no longer return to previous pages which is an important feature for me. It still functions as before when in incognito mode however. I will use another extension until this is fixed. I hope it will be done soon. Thanks.
