| 2024-05-11 |  | | zh | 非常好用！可惜无法使用前进/后退功能。希望出一个扩展，启动/关闭浏览器时自动清除所有历史记录，而不是直接关闭记录。 |

| 2023-11-18 |  | | en | Extremely bad since I turned it on couple days ago (again) I feel like my search engine has been hijacked keeps sending me to different search browsers I tried to delete it but it wasn't allowing me it kept closing the browser ever since I turned it off the browser doesn't randomly go to different search engines and it doesn't say something like Searchgate |
| 2023-02-10 |  | | Of course it pauses history, but there is one fatal flaw: if you previously visited a website when your history was on (extension disabled), then pause your history (extension enabled) and visit it again, previous visits will DISAPPEAR from Chrome history, with no way to retrieve them! This is terrible, since I need to find a way to be able to reload a page WITHOUT it entering the browser history AND PRESERVING previous visits! Too bad there is no way to do this, especially as Chrome has become much more aggressive about updating itself, and there is no way I can hide that Update button in the corner for too long. I would have been comfortable about updating Chrome *without* overwriting my last visits to my open tabs by using this extension, if only previous visites WERE NOT REMOVED! I hope you will be able to fix this if you can, since it is a most infuriating behaviour of Chrome. | |

| 2022-04-29 |  | | Не работает в Хроме от слова совсем! Ставил специально, чтобы не запоминалась история загрузок (мне нафиг не нужно неделями хранить загруженные файлы в списке, тем более в папке загрузки их уже нет, Хром рулит йопт). Так ваш замечательный плагин не просто ничего не делает, он наоборот восстанавливает список загрузок, удалённый вручную. Это прикол такой? Или может я чего-то не понял и в двух чекбоксах запутался? Бессмысленная пустота в вакууме! | |
