Link Controller
Control Whether Links Open in a New or Current Tab
What is Link Controller?
"Link Controller" is a user-friendly Chrome extension designed to provide better control over how links are opened on your browser. With this tool, you can decide whether a clicked link opens in a new tab or in the current one. An intuitive icon indicates the current settings, and one simple click allows you to toggle the options either for the present tab or for all. Enhance your browsing experience by eliminating unwanted disruptions caused by spontaneous tab openings.
