Extension summary

Analyze keywords

NOTE: You must check "Allow in incognito" after installing this extension for this to work. Otherwise the extension will have permission to find and close the opened incognito windows.

Ever wanted to be able to close all of your Incognito Windows at the press of a button? Now you can using the keyboard shortcut Alt + W.

You must have a chrome window in focus when pressing the keyboard shortcut, otherwise it will not work. But will still close minimized windows when a chrome window (incognito or not) is focused.

User reviews

Still works exactly as expected. Press Alt-W and all incognito tabs close. Nothing fancy and gets the job done.

Doesn't work at all (of course I allowed the plugin in incognito mode) After looking at the source code, it appears the API "chrome.windows" is not supported anymore. Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'getAll' of undefined at <anonymous>:1:16

For it to work, you have to allow it in incognito mode. While there is some risk, it isnt' a big deal IMHO. However it took me an hour of searching to figure that out.
