Dmitry Komarov (ID: 0000009b933c2e23) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 11/09/2023 Was cool until tried it with tab groups: save tab group then close/reopen it several time. 50% change that tab group reopen will break tab group: only the first tab remain in the group, other tabs open not grouped. UPDATE: Was able to fix tab groups behavior with another extension "Tab position customizer" configuring it's options : in my case I had to add custom rules for "chrome://newtab" and "chrome-extension://jpfpebmajhhopeonhlcgidhclcccjcik/override.html" only.

Роман Липатов (ID: 00000036699000b5) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/03/2023 То, что нужно. Новая вкладка должна открываться справа от текущей. Если надо в конце, просто переходим на последнюю вкладку. Не понимаю, почему в настройках хрома нет такой опции. Даже в Опере это работает.

CakeDoer (ID: 00000084781c2186) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 08/07/2023 I don't know about tab groups, but this extension works perfectly for my use case: Open new tab to the right of current Open last active tab on closing the current Thank you to the author :-)
