Extension summary
This extension only keeps Chrome running in the background.
This extension has no way of accessing your personal data anywhere while you are browsing, its sole purpose is to allow you to keep Chrome in the background.
It only keeps Chrome running in the background (keeps the main Chrome process open in the background) even when you close all Chrome windows. Therefore, Chrome starts faster when it is running in the background. You won't believe how fast Chrome opens.
With this extension, you can receive push notifications even when the browser is closed.
Note: Make sure that the "Continue running background apps when Google Chrome is closed" option is turned on in Chrome. (Settings > System > Continue running background apps when Google Chrome is closed)
