History Button: Quick Access to Your Chrome Browser History

'History Button' is a lightweight Chrome extension designed to enhance user access to browser history. It adds a shortcut button, encouraging more efficient browsing by directing you to your history in a new tab, or switches to the history tab if it's already open. Unlike a bookmark, it secures against opening multiple browser history tabs. Related extensions include 'Chrome Downloads Button' and 'Chrome Extensions Button'.
