Reviews & Comments of New Tab, New Window chrome extension

tabbed browsing is not a good default choice for large 4K windows. this extension, along with sizer 4.0, makes a much better experience.

This is the first extension I always install on my computer after reinstalling the Windows. Thank you SO MUCH for it!

Incredibly helpful extension, exactly what I was looking for - thank you! Extremely useful to be able to auto-open every link straight into a new window - I find it so much easier to quickly navigate between everything I have open that way (using Alt-Tab) as everything open is always visible in its own window (instead of tabs which can lurk almost invisibly within any single window).

This app would be perfect if you could toggle app off or pause the app using the menu options. I have to go into "Manage Extensions" in Chrome each time I want to pause this app, which happens occassionally

When I right click an icon or a link for a web page and select "Open In New Tab," it still opens in a new window. This is unacceptable as I sometimes do want to open links in new tabs (such as when opening search results). I am going to remove unless there is an option to fix this, or a new release that corrects this. It shouldn't behave this way because it's misleading and semantically incorrect.

I have been using this extension since 2014. It is simple and perfect.

This is my #1 most essential Chrome extension. It does what it says, and has done for years, I love it.

THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT IS GOING TO SAVE ME FROM A LIFE OF FRUSTRATION! I! HATE! TABS! CAN'T ALT-SHIFT THRU THEM! ALWAYS HIDING FROM ME. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!! (AND I'M USING OPERA BTW AND THIS WORKS JUST FINE)

I love this extension! SO simple, automatic and easy!

WONDERFUL! Finally I can see all the open pages in the Windows task switcher! Why Chrome hides them I dont understand, Firefox tabs are all visible in window task switcher.

Fantastic. I never got on board with tabbed browsing and this brings back the good old days.

One word, excellent! Five stars all the way. I should have reviewed this 5+ years ago, but I'm never signed into chrome when setting up the browsers. I hate tabs with a passion! Installed on standard chrome. Chrome Canary. 5. Chrome portables. Also have installed on other family members, PCs, and they all love it as well. There is nothing to dislike about it :-) K.I.S.S

Just works as expected, all new links open in a new window

Works on the latest chrome update when many others will not.

5 stars if it also provided a fullscreen mode! Please add!

how i can still open links in tab if i need? should be something like if shift or alt or ctrl pressed, then open in tab instead of new win

Works perfectly. I hate tabs and this solved the "problem"

Great tool. Is there an equivalent add-on for Firefox? If so, could you provide a hyperlink? (I tried a keyword search, but found nothing.)

It is great, I would like better it if I open a new window from fullscreen mode, that the new window would also be fullscreen mode. (Fullscreen Mode = F11)

does what it says. annoying that when I click new tab it opens it up as new window tho.. wish to have more control over it.

Works ok, but Chrome occasionally displays an error message complaining that tabs are unresponsive, which gets annoying after a while.

It doesn't work. If a window is small in the corner, for say watching a video, new windows take on the small window size forcing you to constantly change the window size. It's maddening.

Sweet!

great, thx.

It was great...until today. It no longer works. :-(

Ability to force new window to be maximized added, extension now perfect. Fast, no flicker, maximized. Lovely.

It would be even better if it opened the new windows in the background. That would avoid the flicking effect now we have.

only thing bugging me is now theres no middle clicking to Just open in a tab if thats the next thing added then this is a sure fire grab for those people who just have to have everything about their browser perfect

Does the job for me. My development tool opens a new window/ tab when testing and so I had to use Safari, otherwise I was forever closing my IDE down. This solves the problem so I can go back to using Chrome

Exactly what I wanted!

please make new windows maximized!

I'm sure the functionality is adequate, but this extension was downloaded surreptitiously onto my browser. The reason why PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Programs) have their name is that not all of us actually want them.

It does exactly what it said it would. Wish the have a button for new window as well.

i wish the new window could open maximized

i like it but i would like it more if the new window would open at maximum size, if they do that then i will give it a 5 star rating.

This is great, but It would be perfect if it had a few more settings. One option in particular that I would really like is to be able to open a new window specifically into my second monitor.

Needs the ability to open as a new maximized window. Then it will be perfect. Workaround: Make sure the option for the extension is set to have the new window the same as the parent window. Close all open Chrome windows. Open a new chrome window. Click the restore down button (right next to the X in the top right) and resize your window to the desired size. Close chrome. Open Chrome again and it should be the same size and when you do a new tab, it will open a new window with the same size. Enjoy! :)

Great but would be perfect if new tabs were maximized like the parent window (NTNW v3.0 Chrome for Linux v30, configured to match parent window not cascade)

Horrible. I wanted to have NO new windows opened when I used Outlook Web Access to Compose e-mail. This extension didn't prevent that - so I have a new window every time. Completely useless.

Works great on Windows 8 and Chrome OS. Note that without this extension you can Shift-Mouse Click any URL in any browser to get a new Window instead of a Tab.

Does just what it says on the tin. Nice! Thank you! Thank you!

Thank you for the control to use my Browser the way I want to. I use the Keyboard all the time, ALT-TAB is a favorite, but it does not cycle the tabs in a browser so I like windows not tabs. Thank you

I can't stand Chrome without this extension. Our OSs come with window managers and we can get better ones, why would we want to give them up and use the limited functionality of tabs per app instead?

Amazing!! "On Microsoft Windows, even if the parent window is maximized, new window will not be maximized." WHAT? I'm using Google Chrome with Windows 7 and ALL new Chrome windows ALWAYS open maximized which is REALLY NICE! (NTNW Options - Same to the parent window position) Anyhow.. This extension is really AMAZING since there is NO option in Google Chrome to disable tabs (How lame..). Tabs SUCK since you cannot SEE previews of each tab at a glance. Whereas you can SEE previews of all open Chrome windows AT A GLANCE by hovering the Windows 7 taskbar or by installing ObjectDock or Nexus Ultimate (which i currenlty use btw) LOVE IT!! ff

Thank you a million times for this. I don't need tabs and think it arrogant of Chrome to impose them. However, on my system, if I open several new windows, each one is offset from the last in a diagonal directon rather than each filling the screen. Would prefer full screen opening every time.
