Description

A page for Recently Closed Tabs, following the design of the History and Downloads pages. Click a Tab or Window to restore it. Chrome maintains a list of the 25 most recently closed Windows and Tabs, which it allows to be restored in full: Windows will have all their Tabs and Tab Groups restored intact, Tabs will have their forward and back navigation buttons populated with the pages previously visited in that Tab. This differs from the History page, which is simply a list of website addresses that can be reopened. This extension displays the full list of restorable Windows and Tabs; anything not listed must be accessed via the History page. Keyboard shortcut: Alt+Z. To change the shortcut, paste this into the address bar: chrome://extensions/shortcuts The Trashcan and Window icons in this extension, as well as icons in promotional images, are in the public domain and available from http://paomedia.github.io/small-n-flat/

A complete disaster. This extension gives the illusion of maintaining an organized view of closed tabs across your most recent browsing sessions (or at least within a fixed time frame, such as a week). But no! What it actually does is reset the "recency" count every time you open the extension. This means it will only consider tabs closed from that moment onward as recent, while silently discarding all previous ones—even if they were closed just minutes ago—utterly defying any reasonable interpretation of the word "recent."

Absolutely horrible.

This extension works fine except for the fact that when I click on a closed tab link in the list it opens up in a new window. Is there a setting I can change so that it will open in the window that I already have open and not a new window?
