Closed all my tabs before I could set that it should only prevent new ones from opening. If I could give zero starts I would.

Until the last couple of days, I would say this is a 4-star extension. I've used this for years and used it with Brave for a couple of years, but all of a sudden in the last couple of days, it stopped working. What happens now, is when you try to open a tab that puts you over your limit, the tab is open in a new browser window instead of being blocked. So, it seems like the v2.0.1 release introduced a bug. ------------ 08-24-2024 UPDATE: The behavior has continued over all of these months. Today, I came back and saw your message, Craig. I disabled xTab, restarted Brave, then re-enabled xTab and restarted Brave again. For years, I have set the limit to 100 tabs, but I know for a fact that Brave and my PC can handle up to around 200-230 or so tabs without a problem. As of today, due to xTab's behavior, I was up to 5 windows and 234 tabs because xTab at some point just launches a new window. Or Brave is doing it. I don't know. I saved all of my open tabs and then I changed the xTab limit to 30 tabs, restarted Brave, then changed the limit to 120 tabs and restarted Brave. I then proceeded to re-open tabs to see what would happen when I got around 120 tabs. Actually, I found it fluctuates, but when trying to open a new tab, the 101st, 102nd, or maybe the 103rd tab causes a new window to open. Maybe the approximate 100 or so tab limit for a window has always existed or is a Brave specific limit. For a few years, I used Chrome (not sure if I used xTab back then), but then used Edge for a few years and I definitely used xTab during that time, but I usually kept the xTab limit to 100 tabs. And now I have used Brave for more than 2 years. However, xTab still lets me blow by the 120 tab limit. Ever since I started using xTab many years ago, I've always enabled the "Block new tabs from opening" option. I'm not sure when the "Block without warning" option was added, but I have never used that. I like to see the pop-up that lets me know I just tried opening a tab that put me over the limit. Of course, that hasn't worked for me now since late April/early May 2024. For now, I've decided to just disable xTab since even completely removing it and re-adding it also did not fix the issue. Something related to the changes with manifest v3 has it simply not working correctly, both with forcing new windows to open and not actually limiting new tabs from being open at the limit cut-off.

Simples e eficiente. Digite 2 abas e ele fecha na terceira. Digite 1 e ele fecha na segunda. Digite 0 e ele não deixa você abrir nenhuma outra. Ajudou muito a minha produtividade.

Your extension has a bug. If you close your browser in unconventional ways, such as using the task manager, and you have more than one window open, when you reopen your browser later, probably all other windows are going to be closed except one. If your computer turns off for any reason and you restart it, Chrome will show you a message saying that you didn't close the browser correctly. When you click on the 'restore' button, the same thing that happens when you close your browser with the task manager occurs. So, I think it would be useful if the extension had a history or something similar. Alternatively, if it's easy for the developer, they could just fix that bug. If you need help understanding how this bug has affected me, just let me know.

A great extension! has really helped boosting my productivity, but a feature that needs to be added, one can just open a new window and have more tabs open that there should be as of extension - it does block all of those opened in the same window but all it takes is opening a new window to bypass it, overall really helpful though, thanks!

okay so like it didn't actually work, I have a little problem with having too many tabs open and I have a counter for it (currently at 434 tabs in this browser, but I also have a school browser and I'm still clearing stuff out of my old browser). At one point I got down to around 300 and set my limit to 350, but then realized that xtab did nothing.
