Rosario Tortorici (ID: 000000640627cc93) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 10/31/2022 L'ho aggiunta a chrome unicamente per eliminare la cronologia ogni volta che chiudo e riapro il browser, ma non è in grado neanche di fare questo. Pessima.

Michael Kharitonov (ID: 0000001cfd5c904d) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 05/29/2019 Almost all settings are present in Chrome. For cleaning it's better to use external program that doesn't suffer from API limitations.
