Clutter Free – Settings export & import, and bug fixes
Settings – export and import
Set up different browser profiles to identical settings using the ‘Export settings‘ and ‘Import settings‘ options.
Settings export and import are available on the options page: Options»About Clutter Free»Export/Import settings.
All Clutter Free settings are exported, including the URL whitelist and the domain blacklist. Exported settings are downloaded as a text file. This text file is not in a human readable format, and must not be changed.
After installing Clutter Free in a different browser profile, import the settings by importing the previously saved export file.
Clutter Free will only import settings after verifying the integrity of the imported file. If the file has been modified, the import may fail.
Bug Fixes and other updates
- Bug Fix: Clicking on direct switch links sometimes jumps to unrelated tabs. Clutter Free now has an additional check before switching. If the check fails, the link is clicked as normal.
- Bug Fix: In rare case, Clutter Free blocks duplicate new tab pages. Specifically, Momentum extension’s new tab URL has been now added to the whitelist.
That’s all, folks!
Please share your feedback, including suggestions and any bugs you find using this link.

Clutter Free – Attached window mode, window location & some bug fixes
Tab Search – Floating and attached window modes
Tab search window may now be opened in either of two modes:
- Floating window mode – This is the default behaviour. It provides full functionality of tab search and duplicates list.
- Attached window mode. This is equivalent to the old popup behaviour. The tab search popup appears next to extension button, and closes automatically when clicked anywhere outside it.
A few features are not supported in the attached window mode:
- Highlighted tab is not automatically focused in the browser. Pressing ‘
enter‘ or clicking on a tab in the list switches to the selected tab, and closes the search window. - Keyboard shortcuts to switch (‘
Ctrl+Tab‘ and ‘Ctrl+Shift+Tab‘) between ‘Tab Search’, ‘Duplicate Tabs List’, and ‘Actions’ tabs in the popup window do not work . - Keyboard shortcuts to jump (‘
Ctrl+1/2/3‘) to ‘Tab Search’, ‘Duplicate Tabs List’, and ‘Actions’ tabs in the popup window may not work on Windows and Linux. They work as usual on macOS.
Switch popup behaviour between floating and attached window modes in options: Options»Tab Search»Floating search window.
Tab Search – Floating window size and position
In floating window mode, Clutter Free now remembers the location and size of the window. When resized or moved around the screen, the window will next open in the same location and size.
Other updates
- Extension states – ‘
on‘ and ‘off‘ – are now called ‘active mode‘ and ‘passive mode‘, respectively.
This change better signals that even in off/passive state, the extension still detects duplicate tabs. It just does not automatically close them.
In active mode, Clutter Free automatically closes detected duplicate tabs. - Bug Fix: Closing two documents (or sheets or slides) from Google Drive (
drive.google.com) sent one of the tabs in an infinite reload loop. This is now fixed.
There is another unrelated bug with a similar reload loop with Drive documents when one is opened in a different window. It is still unfixed.

Todo.txt for Chrome – UI tweaks: Smaller header bar, wider search
Old 2 layer header
New compact header with wider search bar and saved filter name
Compact header bar
Increased space for the task list by making the header bar more compact.
Signed in user name and the log out link – both infrequently used – are now available in the sidebar instead of at top of the app. The syncing indicator (#2 in the screenshot below) now appears in the footer when active.
The filter field is now wider, and a consumes all available free space in the header. This allows for longer filters to be fully available.
If the current filter text is saved in the sidebar, the name of the filter appears before the filter text (#1 above).
Finally, traversing the task list with keyboard up/down now also focuses on the filter search. Pressing down key when on the last task, or up key from the first task goes to filter input. Pressing down in the filter moves focus to the first task, pressing up focuses the last task.
Other updates
- Dates entered in the due date and completion date fields are verified before accepting. A warning message is shown if the date is invalid.
- Bug fix: Completion date field was not shown at times when editing a completed task
That’s all for now.
As usual, please share any bugs, or new feature suggestions that you come across.
Cheers!
