Description

Close any overlay on any website with a single click or keys.
Use keyboard shortcut on Windows ctrl+shift+x or on MacOS cmd+shift+x (think about x as the close button you can use on any website).
Once you get used to the keyboard shortcut, you'll be using it all the time and gonna love it ! ; )

Important features:
* It works on any website. It doesn't rely on a static list of rules, as some other extensions.
* It doesn't require any permissions.
* No performance impact on your browsing. It will only activate when triggered.
* (NEW) Also removes blurred backgrounds and unlocks the scroll bar.

What has inspired us?

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!
