Overview
Product summary
Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.
Enable Backspace extension enables you to easily navigate to the previous page by clicking on the "backspace" button on your keyboard.
Recently in modern browsers, the "go-back" feature for the backspace button was removed. This add-on helps you bring back this functionality to your browser. It has a toolbar icon that serves as the toggle switch. Once the add-on is active, the toolbar icon color is dark grey. In the inactive state, the icon color changes to light grey. Please note that this add-on does not have any options or settings page. Simply add it to your browser and start using it.
If you have a feature request or found a bug to report, please submit the bug report form on the addon's homepage (https://mybrowseraddon.com/enable-backspace.html).

Не работает.
Worked fine, although for some reason it took a while to start working. I only used it until I discovered that alt+left does the same thing.
Works.
doesn't work
Here comes the tiebreaker... **drumroll** ... It worked for me. Installed extension, needed an update to chrome so updated to latest version. Restarted. Worked like a charm. Why did they get rid of this anyways? ***I just tried to write this review via their popup and it tried to take me to Facebook to post it and I didn't like that. Almost lowered it to 4 stars.
