## Description

Youtube URL Progress Save automatically updates the YouTube URL to the exact paused time, so you can resume watching later even after closing and reopening the browser. When you pause a video, the URL is updated to include the timestamp, allowing a seamless continue with the browser's Open previous windows and tabs startup setting. This lightweight extension focuses on continuity with minimal setup and friction.
