Dinar Sharifullin (ID: 0000008698ccddbe) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 10/29/2021 When removing extension, all tabs are closed, which were suspended. From the journal (history), these tabs can no longer be opened, because they then have an invalid address (only the name of the tab is visible).

Nicole Chong (ID: 0000006dc60ef294) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 06/02/2021 Great extension to have, and it is super efficient! It gets rid of all the useless tabs from the day before, and makes load time faster.
