User Reviews
Users broadly praise the add-on for doing exactly what it promises: launching a tab in a separate, toolbar-free window that frees screen space and aids focus. It is valued for widening screen real estate on large monitors, and for its simple, accessible controls (menu, context menu, toolbar icon). It’s versatile for screenshots, monitoring, and distraction-free browsing. Reported drawbacks include a visible top bar that undermines the no-toolbar goal, and occasional reliability or compatibility issues with reboot persistence or certain Firefox versions. Pros
- Does exactly what it claims: opens a tab in a separate window without toolbars, freeing up screen space.
- Improves focus and screen real estate on wide monitors, enabling a distraction-free viewing mode.
- Simple and easy to use, with multiple access options (tool menu, context menu, or toolbar icon).
- Versatile and useful for tasks like screenshots, monitoring sites, or pop-out video players; broadly beneficial across contexts.
Cons
- Top bar remains visible; it doesn't provide a full no-bar mode and chrome remains at the top.
- Reliability/compatibility concerns: some users report the setting can be lost after reboot and it may not work on certain Firefox versions.

Does as described. Click on it for the tab you want to open without the bars. My only complaint is that I can't use other extensions from this window. I'm using it as a pop out player because I require subtitles, but I also need my 'pin on top' extension to work for that to work for me paired with this. Womp.

Is New window without toolbar 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.
New window without toolbar requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
