Works like a charm, but there should be a delay before the tab is closed. Clicking a Zoom link from Google Calendar, Chrome often serves up a security notification (something like "Do you want to allow links of this type to open the such-and-such application"), and then this extension immediately closes that tab, leaving Zoom unopened. I have to disable the extension to be able to click "Okay" in the notification, and then re-enable it.
