Only works intermittently. There seems to be no way to make it work all the time. The advice to «If the extension stops working randomly, try disabling "Energy Saver" under Chrome Settings > Performance > Power» does not work, and is irrelevant to the issue. At the moment, there are no Chrome extensions that solve this issue.
Very helpful!
it worked immediately!!
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?
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.
**This works again as of the newest Chrome update!!! Version 142.0.7444.176 ** ERROR please fix: Error handling response: TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'type') at chrome-extension://ahkigobklmfjfoddojojphffagkfakpc/service_worker.js:45:9 Unchecked runtime.lastError: No window with id: -1.
è da giorni che l'addon rende l'applicativo instabile: ogni volta che si apre un popup, Chrome va in crash. Disattivandolo invece, Chrome ricomincia a funzionare regolarmente
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.
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. Update 11/12/2025, seems to be working fine on Chrome version 142.0.7444.163 so I wonder if it was a Chrome bug that Google fixed.
