Александр Корнышев (ID: 000000245f7a6743) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 01/02/2019 Иногда из-за приложения яндекс браузер полностью загружает одно из ядер процессора, из-за чего процессор сильно греется, а комп тормозит. Такое поведение преждевременно сожгёт вам процессор, будьте аккуратнее.

Geoff Goas (ID: 000000bbbb2bbc19) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 10/25/2018 This has been working great for me up until Chrome 69. Now the extension randomly causes 100% CPU usage. Is the developer active?

Jaime Garcia (ID: 0000002c0c6c3306) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 09/18/2018 Mysterious high cpu usage, possible crypto miner

Irina Svetlowa (ID: 0000002e11afe78e) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/07/2016 Hi, I am interested in acquiring your extension "Backspace for Chrome". Please contact me at: [email protected]

R K (ID: 00000022a1d34f40) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/17/2016 Of ALL the Chrome extensions out there to restore backspace functionality, this is the only one I found with the ability to work around unwanted "go back" behavior occurring in Flash applets. You can use the "Exclude list" feature to blacklist those websites from the "backspace to go back" behavior.
