1. This isn’t practical if I have to keep the tab of this extension open. 2. This is also inconvenient to select the ENABLE option every time when a new Chrome window opens. 3. It can prevent the closing very well. 4. It replaces my start up page.

Utterly useless. Maybe i am doing something wrong but the Chrome Close Lock tab is active and green saying "Protection Activated" which should mean Chrome can't be closed accidentally. Yet on several occasions when my mouse has inadvertently been knocked to the floor and clicked the X to close the browser Chrome Close Lock has not prevented Chrome Browser from closing. Thankfully on those occasions i could recover my tabs i have not always been so lucky which is why I wanted something to prevent mass accidental closing of tabs.

Funciona perfeitamente para o que eu queria!
Abro muitas janelas de programas como excel etc, e ao fechar algumas as vezes clica duas vezes ou clica fora perdendo importantes janelas abertas que não da pra recuperar como dados de formularios.

Very nice and useful, but its implementation is strange and it needs to be hidden like other extensions . It better be active all time and hidden . Thanks

Doesn't work the way I had hoped, offering a warning when the window is closed, not the tab - so basically it won't stop you closing any website unless there are no other tabs open in that window. I was hoping for something that automatically engages on specific websites, not something that needs to be turned on manually every time. Having to have a weird extra tab open to operate the app is clunky to say the least, and the visual design of the app is ugly and excessive.

I can see no reason at all why you need to
Read browsing history
Manage apps, extensions, and themes
These are the sort of activity used by hackers. Well, not on my computer.
I've been using the app for a while now, it WAS brilliant. Now, it is disabled and going to be uninstalled.

Very helpful extension. But I enjoyed the kitten pictures. If embedding the pictures increased the size too much, how about adding an option to display the user's own pictures from a particular directory?

Hello dev, could you please bring back the option to enable locking each window by default? In the new version, I would have to manually activate the close window protection feature. I miss the days when all new browser windows are automatically protected the moment they're first created. I'm a lazy set-and-forget kind of person😂
I'm used to the days when the pinned protection tab doesn't kick in, I can click the extension button to lauch the dedicated pinned tab and thus activating protection feature.
Edit: found one of your earlier reply to another reviewer. Sorry for the misunderstanding, it seems that Google has made the auto-enable impossible in newer Chrome versions.

A solution that helps prevent me from accidentally closing Chrome. I do agree with the other reviews that the visuals are very weird. Please make a basic theme that is just a blank page. There's no need for themes.

Perhaps if I had kept this installed for more than 30 seconds, I'd have gotten used to a weird permanent tab with a monster face on it. Please someone implement this functionality in a straightforward day.

Would be good if it was more customisable. At the moment it's truly the ugliest app in the Chrome Store. Works well enough if you can stand the ugliness though.

Visual is weird and takes up more memory than necessary. Also it's so glitchy anytime I use a pop out it glitches and tries opening 20 tabs, needs a lot of improving and bug patching.

Would've been a wonderful app and it does what it says it does but it keeps opening like a billion tabs and glitching every so often out of nowhere. Like, even if I'm not interacting with the window, it'll just spasm out of nowhere then lock up my chrome so I can't use it.

Used to be great. Past few months, it occasionally (once every 2 weeks) glitches and opens a few dozen times in the same Chrome browser window, lagging the browser to the point of freezing. 5 minutes later it crashes the extension and I have access to my tabs again.

***Use "Closure" instead***
"Chrome Close Lock" was working fine until about a month ago. It was one of my favorite extensions. Now if enabled, the extension opens dozens of duplicate pages and freezes the browser for at least 30 minutes. To get back to a functioning browser, you have to close each opened tab one by one.
I've searched all through the chrome store, and I finally found the perfect one named "Closure." It's a wonderful app that works like I want - doesn't let me accidentally close Chrome. Simply right click on a unused and pinned tab (preferably) and a notification window will pop up asking permission to not close the window without consent. Works well and easy to use.
The Closure extension can be found here: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/closure/jjagagcgljmlnihcilbpbfcglnopepjb

TERRIBLE !! Seemed like a great idea - and appeared to be, at first.... ..but not for long....
When I start up Chrome it usually asks if I want to restore all pages - which I ALWAYS do...
This app then hijacks them all, sends CPU usage to 100% for at least half an hour, sends Chrome usage to over 80%, and replaces multiple tabs on different windows (randomly) with red or blue warming triangle icons, ands nothing works - can swap windows, but all tabs unresponsive...
Then costs me 30-60 mins waiting, trying to respond to flashing triangle icons, and then loses some of my Chrome windows with anything from 10-50 tabs on them... ..then they dont show up in 'recently closed' list, as the list is full of 'Close Lock' entries closed by itself after randomly opening them.
So, then I have to try and find all those tabs again, recreate the lost Chrome Groups, and put them all back in - complete NIGHTMARE.
Absolute BLOODY DISASTER... ....sorry mate - you need to fix this random lockup resource waster or delete it....

Works now, thanks.
I'll upgrade my rating to 5 stars if we get an option to enable the close lock by default when you open chrome. I've always felt that this extension would be infinitely better with an auto-enable option.

Does what it's supposed to. It can't do it automatically without interacting with the browser for security reasons. This won't be able to be changed permanently because it would be an exploit that google would immediately fix.

Es increíble que un navegador como Chrome no tenga una función tan sencilla como la tiene esta extensión, en cuanto a la extensión es buena y sencilla de usar y un gran alivio para los que somos despistados y cerramos el navegador por error cuando tenemos muchas pestañas abiertas.

I love this, it's really helpful.
There's only 2 things I don't really like:
1. The images are too low quality, it's really weird. if a better quality image isn't an option i would like an option to choose an image from my computer or from an imgur link.
2. I hate the blinking telling you it's not active, just the triangle would be enough, I find myself locking everytime, even when i dont want to, just so the blinking stops. pls get rid of the blinking or just make so that the "close lock tab" only appear if you click on the app icon on the top right.
But it's really useful thanks!
