clarified that I mean tabs from links, not the "new tab" button
  • I want my new browser tabs to appear at the end, not right after the current tab. Chrome (desktop) doesn't have a setting for this (or at least not one I've been able to find), so I use the "New Tabs at End" extension.
  • Google has recently revoked approval of this extension (I don't know why, beyond the vague "violates our terms" message). They haven't force-uninstalled it, like they have done at times in the past when an extension was considered dangerous, just disabled it. I can enable it again and restore the behavior.
  • The problem is that every time I restart the browser, it reverts to being disabled again and I have to remember to re-enable it (usually right after I've opened a tab that doesn't show up in the right place). For my work laptop, this means I have this hassle every day.
  • How can I force new Chrome tabs to the end with minimum effort? I'd be happy with any of:
  • - a Chrome setting for tab placement (no extensions needed)
  • - a replacement extension
  • - a way to auto-enable this one on launch (but I don't want to auto-enable *all* installed extensions)
  • In case it matters, I'm having this problem on Mac 10.12.6 (Sierra) and Windows 10.
