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.

"インストールした時点で自動適応される"ことを記述したほうがいい。 It would be better to describe "auto-adaptive at the time of installation". あと設定の開き方も。 Also how to open the settings. 「chrome://discards」で変更が可能。

I was just about to stop using Chrome as my default browser (again!) when I heard about this extension in a discussion thread about, How to Stop Chrome Tabs from Refreshing. Thanks a million! This works as intended and as described. Chrome is worthless without this extension.

Worked really well until around November-December 2022 but as of the start of 2023, it's working again for me!
