#CHROME BUILT IN TAB SUSPENDER INSTALL#

Before to remove or disable the extension, you have to: I've managed to formulate an escape strategy for the people already captured by that nightmare, that I have used to escape myself from the prison. Do not simply disable or remove this extension, as it will let you with many 'suspended' tabs, and I dunno if you could see the original address or the suspension page after extension uninstall.

Absolutely do not install this extension! It puts you into a nightmare trap where it is very difficult to escape!! (Apart from, not working as stated).Īttention - do not close opera browser executable or reboot computer while this extension is active, or you will almost surely experiment data loss, because it is not able to restore tabs above some undefined number, after an Opera reboot, and behave with complicated failures. Time will tell how things go, but again so far, so good. But I could just hit the back button and the 'previous' page before the 'suspended' screen was the page that had been suspended, and all the pages before it in the history of that tab were indeed still there.Īnd some minutes later I could again use the feature to click a page to unsuspend it. Indeed, a quirk I just encountered was that I found (perhaps after the browser restart) that I could not unsuspend the tab by clicking it, like it should (and had before, in testing before the browser restart). (We may want to be able to retrace our steps in the history for an open tab, which a bookmark would not do.)Īnd I can confirm that a tab suspended by this tool does retain its history. There are reasons that bookmarks don't work well. Now we need only deal with the people who fat-shame us, as if we're wrong to want to have many tabs open.

So those of us who like many tabs can do it without the memory squeeze. And it seems to leave them suspended on restart of Opera, which is great. I dropped from Opera using 1.3g to 500m, upon suspending all tabs. I'd long been a fan of the Great Suspender in Chrome, which offers similar functionality (may well be the inspiration for this one).
