Features & Capabilities

The 'X' symbol has been used since Netscape to stop HTML download. Today, webpages don't load - they show up within milliseconds, provided that JavaScript trackers are disabled. Consider remapping your 'X' to regain visibility and usability.

Main Usage: with Vertical Tabs. Do you struggle with interpreting the favicons, ellipses and X's of many open tabs? Use this extension with vertical tabs enabled. See userChrome.xml settings under Details.

Culprit for Wasted Space: Desktop Environment Integration. The X is used for closing the application window, and thus all tabs. Use this extension with a minimize button extension to reclaim unneeded window control X button.

This addon: a temporary solution. Development must continue probably both on Firefox and on each desktop environment to allow the native window control icons to close vertical tabs in apps.

Is Close current Tab dark Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Close current Tab dark does not require any sensitive permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

Low This permission has no access or impact on the user's system or data, thus carrying no risk.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Close current Tab dark is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
