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.

Really helpful. I was experiencing a lot of frustration with office 365 (specifically OneNote and Outlook being discarded frequently). This solves the problem! Thanks so much.

It's very convenient. Although after like an hr or less, my tabs went right back to being discarded and i dunno why....lol. But A for effort for the developer.

This thing doesn't work on my Chromebook at all. My tabs still reload forcing me to restart my laptop. Absolutely useless.

As of Jan 25th, 2020 - This extension only seems to work 30-40% of the time on my lower end Chromebook. I should note that when I was able to prevent tab discarding via the Flag method my tabs never were discarded - So I don't think its a hardware/performance issue, I think Chrome is overriding this extension at times. I would pay for it to work 100% of the time.
