Chrome automatically adds sites to your list of custom search engines list when you visit them. This extension prevents this behavior.
Code: https://github.com/gkovacs/do-not-automatically-add-other-search-engines
Note that Chrome uses a number of heuristics to add search engines, and while this extension prevents the most common approach, we cannot prevent all of them. Hence, some search engines may still get through. To remove added search engines (in this case, those that contain '.' in the keyword), navigate to chrome://settings/searchEngines and run the following code a few times (via the developer console, Command-Option-J or Ctrl-Shift-J)
for (var x of document.querySelectorAll('.keyword-column')) {
if (x.innerText.indexOf('.') != -1) {
x.parentNode.parentNode.childNodes[1].click()
}
}
Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
