About Tab & Window Monitor
Take control of your browser footprint and boost system performance with Tab & Window Monitor.
Designed for both heavy multitaskers and enterprise IT environments, this lightweight extension empowers you to enforce strict limits on the number of open tabs and browser windows. Prevent browser bloat, optimize memory usage, and maintain a highly organized workspace.
⚡ KEY FEATURES
• Per-Window Tab Enforcer: Set an absolute limit on the number of tabs allowed inside a single browser window.
• Global Window Cap: Restrict the total number of open workspace windows to reduce desktop clutter.
• Custom Corner Notifications: When a limit is reached, a subtle, dedicated toast notification slides up to alert you, cleanly closing the unauthorized tab or window automatically.
• Zero Background Lag: Built on optimized Manifest V3 architecture, settings are cached instantly in memory—no background loop lag or browser initialization delay.
🏢 ENTERPRISE DEPLOYMENT READY (GPO / INTUNE)
Built from the ground up for IT Administrators. This extension supports the Chromium Managed Storage API, allowing you to deploy and enforce compliance limits domain-wide via Group Policy Objects (GPO) or Microsoft Intune:
• Policy Registry Path: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge\3rdparty\extensions\hllfbelpdbehjcgkjpcnnikocchecoah\policy
• Supports Registry DWORD properties for 'maxTabs', 'maxWindows', and 'showNotifications'.
• Seamless Local Fallback: Automatically falls back to a local 'config.json' or hardcoded defaults (10 tabs / 2 windows) if no enterprise policies are detected.
