Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

This extension automatically tells Chrome that every tab you open is "not auto discardable". This might help solve issues where Chrome kills more tabs than you would want to, however, this is not foolproof, and tabs might still get discarded if your system is out of memory.

No configuration needed, the extension will mark every open tab as "not auto discardable" as long as you installed the extension and haven't disabled it.

Want to make sure this extension is working? Go to chrome://discards in a new tab and see how every row has a cross in the "auto discardable" column.

works as described. Highly recommend getting for those that have a lot of tabs they don't want discarded.

It did absolutely nothing. Tabs still get discarded, refreshed and otherwise messed with even when I manually click on the extension. Maybe it's my laptop, but for me it's a complete waste of storage space

Let's try it, because since (at least) 91 verison there are no more functions in chrome://flags that enables you to stop discarding tabs.
