Overview
Product summary
Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.
This extension requires permissions to inject a piece of code in all of the pages you visit. If that freaks you out, that's ok. Handing over those permissions freaks me out too.
You can choose to install this extension from source (it's very short) to make sure it's not doing anything malicious.

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!
Die Entwickler der App retten Google vor einem User weniger :) Funktioniert einwandfrei. Vielen Dank dafür. Hätte es keine Lösung gegeben, wäre der Chrome-Browser jetzt vom Rechner geflogen. Wer kommt auf die bescheuerte Idee die Backspace-Taste zum navigieren zu deaktivieren???
Works just like it says it does. I like using backspace to go back. Old habits are hard to break.
Gracias!
Thanks for restoring sanity by making this available.
GDI google how could you disable this without an option to REENABLE it?
Works as listed. I wish it supported shift + backspace to go forward too.
saved my life from this bloody busters- google team! -next step - stop chrome auto updates! -for some reason not working on bookmarks dammm
nao funcionou
Works as advertised, I can go back and everything
