TabReturn

Simulate 'keep browser open when the last tab is closed' behavior.

TabReturn is a handy Chrome extension designed to simulate the behavior of keeping your browser window open even when you close the last remaining tab. Unlike default browser behavior that often closes the entire browser window when the last tab is closed, TabReturn automatically creates a new tab to ensure the browser window remains open.

This extension maintains at least two tabs at all times. When you close a tab and only one tab remains, TabReturn automatically opens a new tab (either a normal or a pinned tab based on preset conditions). This helps prevent accidental browser closures, improving workflow continuity and user experience for those who prefer keeping the browser window active.

不错,能用。最后一个标签页上没有X,通过右键菜单的关闭或ctrl+w都无法关闭。但倒数第二个标签页也关不掉,一旦关掉会自动再打开一个空白标签页补上,因此一直在左边显示两个空白标签页。另外不知是不是版本有改,两个不同的edge窗口,一个中的标签页是可以拖到另一个窗口的标签页中合并了。

chrome商店里的一堆last tab在启动增强模式下要么无效,要么启动浏览器的时候会闪屏一下,这个是最好用的。

很好用,但有一个bug,打开两个窗口后拖动其中一个窗口的标签页与另外一个窗口合并会失败。
