Chrome blocks extensions on its own pages, the Web Store, and PDFs, so the sidebar opened here instead. Your tabs, workspaces, and search are still one keystroke away.

Prefer Chrome’s own panel? One toggle switches it, and one switches back. On Chrome’s own pages, the Web Store, and PDFs the in-page sidebar can’t run, so it opens on this tab instead; the native panel has no such limit.

[ See all 26 features ](/navigation/#features) ## Questions Why can’t Chrome extensions run on chrome:// pages, the Web Store, or PDFs? Chrome blocks extension content scripts from running on its own internal pages (chrome://), the Chrome Web Store, and the built-in PDF viewer. It’s a browser-wide security rule, identical for every extension — no extension can opt out of it. An in-page tool simply has nowhere to run on those pages. What is an in-page sidebar for Chrome? A tab manager that renders directly inside the web page you’re viewing, rather than in the browser’s separate side panel. SuperchargeNavigation’s in-page sidebar can be narrower than Chrome’s native panel, can dock left or right, and stays open as you move between tabs. How do I open the sidebar on any page? Press Alt+B, or click the SuperchargeNavigation toolbar icon. On a normal web page the sidebar appears in the page. On a Chrome page, the Web Store, or a PDF, it opens on a dedicated tab where it can run. A keyboard shortcut isn’t working. How do I fix it? Chrome only assigns an extension’s shortcut if the keys are free. If Alt+B, Alt+K, Alt+G, or Alt+Shift+G does nothing, another extension probably claimed that combination. Open chrome://extensions/shortcuts, find SuperchargeNavigation, and set or change the keys there. The in-page gestures — hold Shift for link badges, type to highlight text, Alt+click to peek a link, Alt+Shift+P to pause on a site — always work and can be tuned in the extension’s options. Can the sidebar be on the left instead of the right? Yes. It defaults to the right, matching Chrome’s side panel. To move the in-page sidebar, open the extension’s options and set Tabs & sidebar → Sidebar side to Left. (If you use Chrome’s native side panel instead, its side is set in Chrome itself — right-click the panel and choose “Show on left”.) Can I use Chrome’s native side panel instead? Yes — open the extension’s options and set Tabs & sidebar → Sidebar style to Native panel. It opens on Chrome’s own pages too, so it never borrows a tab. The trade-off: it can’t collapse to icons or auto-hide, it shows the browser’s panel borders, and it won’t go below Chrome’s minimum width. The in-page sidebar is slimmer and collapsible; the native panel is everywhere. Switch back any time from the same setting. Does the sidebar see my browsing? No. SuperchargeNavigation runs on your device — it has no servers of its own and collects no telemetry. The one exception is cross-device sync: if you turn it on, your workspaces ride your browser’s own sync (Google or Microsoft), never our servers.

Keep them fast. Workspaces let you hoard tabs guilt-free, and this suspends the idle ones to claw back 90–95% of their RAM.
