Close Tab by Double Right Click
Close Tab by Double Right Click is a free Chrome extension developed by webextensions.org. This add-on falls under the category of Browsers and specifically the subcategory of Add-ons & Tools. The main purpose of this extension is to allow users to close the active tab by simply double right clicking anywhere on the page.
One notable feature of Close Tab by Double Right Click is that it is open source, with its source code available on GitHub. Created by Priyank Parashar, this extension offers a convenient alternative approach for closing special tabs such as "chrome://", "about:blank", and others, which have technical limitations within the Chrome API. In these special tabs, users will find a "Close Tab" context-menu entry that appears when they right click anywhere on the page.
For further configuration of the extension, users can visit "chrome://extensions/" > "Details" (for this extension) > "Extension options". Although the extension requires permissions to be enabled for "incognito" window mode or "file:///" URLs, it provides a straightforward way to enhance tab management in Chrome.
