Forget Tab Firefox

Forget Tab

By: Allen
Forget current tab's history, storage, cookies and more with just one click!

Features & Capabilities

Forget Tab is a lightweight Chrome extension designed to help you clear the browsing data of the current active tab with just one click. Unlike broader history cleaners, Forget Tab focuses solely on the active tab, clearing cookies, download history, local storage, session storage, and browsing history associated with it.

The extension features an easy-to-use toolbar icon that changes color to indicate whether the current tab has uncleared data (blue) or if data has been successfully cleared (green). This ensures users are immediately aware of the tab's privacy status. Notifications confirm the specific items cleared. It's a perfect tool for anyone looking to maintain privacy on specific tabs without wiping all their browsing data.

For support or feature requests, you can contact the developer via email, and bug reports can be submitted through the extension's homepage.

Love it. It worked great. Does what it says. I had something called Close and Forget Tab. I did a clean install of Sonoma, and when I put everything back, it was missing. It's gone! Humpty Dumpty is back together again.

Is Forget Tab 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.

Forget Tab requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

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.

Forget Tab may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
