Deactivator: A Super-Lightweight Page Deactivator for Chrome
Deactivator is a free Chrome add-on developed by Yury Ershov that allows users to cease all scripts activity on a webpage with just one click. This handy tool is perfect for those tired of webpages consuming CPU power in the background, while still wanting to keep the page open for its useful content.
By deactivating the web page, Deactivator saves CPU, memory, and network resources, resulting in improved overall page responsiveness. It works similarly to 'Tab Suspender' but with the advantage of keeping the entire page accessible, while removing all active components and hidden scripts.
Unlike other extensions like NoScript, Deactivator only works on demand. To activate it, users simply need to click on the extension icon. It provides a hassle-free way to temporarily stop scripts from running, without permanently blocking them.
Deactivator is a lightweight and efficient solution for Chrome users who want to optimize their browsing experience and reduce resource usage on specific webpages. With its simple interface and one-click functionality, Deactivator is a valuable addition to any Chrome browser.
