Creates a new window with the same properties as the closing one when the last tab is closed.

Do Not Close Browser with Last Tab - Chrome Extension

Do not close browser with last tab is a Chrome extension that aims to keep the browser open even when the last tab is closed. Usually, Chrome shuts down with the closing of the last tab, but with this extension, a new window, with replicated properties of the previous one, is instantaneously opened in place of the last tab. Notably, this extension’s efficient performance depends on enabling the 'Continue running background apps when Chromium is closed' setting. The extension also offers the facility for users to report bugs or make feature requests.
