ずっと愛用してきましたが、最近のCHROME仕様変更以降これのせいで アクティブウィンドウが勝手にCHROMEに切り替わってしまうし修正版も出ないようなので これを期にThe Great Suspenderへ乗換えます。 今までありがとうございました。

メモリを32GB積んでいてもすぐに容量パンクしてしまうのですが入れてみたら大分改善されました。 タブを沢山開いたウィンドウを更に沢山常駐させているのですが、全てのウィンドウを最小化していてもタブを読み込んだウィンドウが表示されてしまうので、各ウィンドウの選択されているタブ以外を全て処理し終わるまでは、最小化しても最小化しても嫌がらせのごとく表示されてしまうので操作ミスが多くなりストレスがとても酷いです。 なので専用のディスプレイを1台増設して、わざわざそこにウィンドウを持ってきてから最小化するようにしなければなりません。 昔使い始めた頃はこんな症状はなかったと思うので何か途中で不具合が出た模様? 改善されたら★5でいいです。
