I wanted to add about:blank as my custom url, but when I save it, it jumps back to the chrome extension address.

Would've given 5 starts but now they are asking for money.

Works great with EDGE. Now every time I open new Tab, this extension preserves my settings that I set on my home page. Also, unlike other similar extensions, this extension dose not slow down my system, it works great. Thank you to developer of this much needed add-on.
