Description
Adds a windowed-fullscreen button next to YouTube's fullscreen control. The video fills the window; tabs and taskbar stay visible. Native fullscreen traps you. The video takes over your display, and the moment you need a tab, a message, or the clock, you have to drop out of it. Windowed Fullscreen adds a second viewing mode right next to YouTube's own fullscreen button. The player expands to fill your entire browser window — the whole screen, once the window is maximized — but it never calls the browser's Fullscreen API. Nothing gets hidden. • Scrollable mode: video fills the screen, but you can still scroll down to the title, description, and comments • Hover the top edge to bring up YouTube's search bar without leaving the mode So your tab strip, address bar, taskbar, clock, and notifications all stay exactly where they are. Click across to another tab, deal with whatever came up, click back — the video is still right where you left it. No exiting, no re-entering, no losing your place. HOW TO USE IT • Click the windowed-fullscreen button beside YouTube's fullscreen control • Or use the toolbar popup • Or press Alt+Shift+F (rebindable at chrome://extensions/shortcuts) • Press Escape to exit — the page is restored exactly as it was ALSO • Optional per-site auto-apply: enter the mode automatically when a video loads • Stays active as you move between videos, no reload needed • Supports YouTube PRIVACY No accounts. No tracking. No analytics. No network requests of any kind. The only thing stored is your auto-apply setting, saved locally on your device and never synced or transmitted.
