Overview
Product summary
Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.
Tab Protector is a browser extension designed for preventing accidental closure or refreshing of specific sites. Ideal for users who often fill out lengthy forms or engage in workflows that must not be disrupted, this extension offers a straightforward solution to avoid losing work. Once configured, protection is automatically enforced whenever you revisit a listed URL.
How to choose a URL:
- Entering a URL will apply the protection to any URLs that start with what you submitted.
- For example, protecting "example.com" will also cover "example.com/path", but protecting "example.com/path" won't also cover "example.com".
- The same is true for subdomains. If you set "example.com" as protected, that won't cover "sub.example.com" or "sub.example.com/path" because they don't start with "example.com", and vice versa.

Doesn't work. Tabs get closed easily. And if the "Add current site"-url is too long, i can't even remove the added sites anymore because theremove-button is unreachable. only after u remove another added site, it will jump over, to the otherr remove buttons.
Pretty straightforward extension. It was easy to set up, and it just works. Solid choice if you want a simple way to lock your tabs down. One feature that would be really helpful is to include the option to protect only the main site/domain and ignore subpages. For example, protect example.com but not example.com/page1
2025-02: The extension does a great job of what it was created for - preventing accidental tab closing. In my case - Google Chrome Remote Desktop tabs when pressing keyboard shortcuts Alt + F4, Ctrl + W, etc. that are not transmitted to the remote machine. 2025-07: The extension no longer works as intended. After pressing Ctrl + W and then confirming the cancellation of closing the tab, the tab has to be reloaded because the image on it disappears.
