| Go back with the backspace button! This extension re-enables the backspace key |
| as a back navigation button -- except if you're writing text. |
| |
| Before Chrome 52, the backspace key navigated back (if you weren't writing |
| text). Many people lost their progress while working online by accidentally |
| pressing backspace and leaving a page -- so we removed the feature from Chrome, |
| and created this extension for those who prefer the old behavior. |
| |
| This extension can't restore backspace on certain special pages, for example |
| any of the "chrome://" pages such as Settings or Extensions, or in the Chrome |
| Web Store. |
| |
| About the requested permissions: |
| |
| "Read and modify all your data": In order to capture backspace on every page, |
| the extension needs to install a little piece of code on each one, including |
| tabs that are already open when the extension itself is installed or updated. |
| It does nothing else with the page, its information, or your typing. |
| |
| "Manage your apps, extensions, and themes": This lets the extension detect |
| when it has been re-enabled and install its code into tabs that are already |
| open then, too. |
