This Tab Will Self Destruct™ is a free Chrome add-on developed by Simon. It falls under the category of Browsers and is specifically classified as an Add-ons & Tools subcategory.

The main purpose of this add-on is to automatically clean up unused tabs in order to keep your browser running smoothly. It achieves this by implementing a self-destruct feature for tabs that have been inactive for a specified period of time, with the default being 60 minutes.

It's important to note that active tabs, pinned tabs, and defused tabs are exempt from this self-destruct mechanism. This ensures that you can keep important tabs open and prevent them from being accidentally closed.

To defuse a tab and prevent it from self-destructing, you can simply click on the toolbar icon and use the "Defuse" button. This provides a convenient way to manage which tabs you want to keep open and which ones can be automatically closed to optimize your browsing experience.
