This WAS a great extension. It is no longer working. As the last update was nearly 5 years ago, I assume it's abandonware.

Per my rating, I "loved it". Unfortunately, I no longer love it. It seems to be interfering with Hulu and Amazon Video services. When I could no longer watch videos in either of those services without switching to FireFox, I eventually disabled this extension and my problems were solved. I hate to remove this extension as it makes opening links in new tabs so much faster, but sadly I must. Honestly this should be Chrome's default behavior, or at least there should be an option for it. Perhaps I should just switch back to FireFox, which is once again a decent alternative.

I was going crazy trying to figure out why middle click was not working. I thought it was the mouse or Windows 10.

Very simple, absolutely no setup needed to disable the "close tab with middle click" functionality.

I always had it on, but unfortunately, it doesn't work anymore. Could you update it for the newest version of Chrome please?

Endlich eine Lösung für diesen Unsinn. Quellcode der Extension ist auch sauber und ohnehin nur eine einzige Zeile lang. Genau so muss das.

Just does what I want from it. Middle click always opens link in new tab.

After reading all the "This really works!" Reviews I decided to add this app and you guessed it.. IT DIDN'T WORK! Annoying as I was really hoping it would fix this annoying problem!

OMG! I always thought middle click opening images\links in the same window instead of opening in new tab is unfixable! HUGE THANKS!

Didn't fix the bug with Chrome in the Chrome Store ( using middle click by holding it down to scroll and releasing breaks the page [ shows the scrolling down or up icon ] and prevents click events from ever being used on that tab again until you close the tab and re-open [ if you switch to a different site, it works fine, but you can't use that tab with the webstore anymore )

Should be a standard feature of the browser...

This did exactly what I hoped it would. 1 click fix. Free scrolling works with centre click again, and links open in a new tab.

Gute Erweiterung für Webseiten die meinten sie müssten die Mittelclick-Funktionalität verändern/beschneiden.
