Extension summary

I created this extension to energize the experience of browsing the web. It adds sound effects to user triggered events like creating and closing tabs, switching tabs, scrolling, navigating back and forward, etc. All the effects can be manually disabled by clicking the extension icon. I am working on adding much more nicer sounds. This is my first extension, so please leave feedback for future versions.

Thank you for checking out the extension.

I used this extension in Opera, there are a few sounds which I tried to switch off, BUT when I relaunch Opera later, these sounds came back on its own, unclicked it a few times but still they come back. Perhaps it doesn't like Windows 11, I have uninstalled it and went for "Sound Plus" .

Now my tabs are piano keys. Thanks lol It's too loud, though. Also I can't enable the first 6 sounds.
