History On/Off
Pause and resume history with a click
History On/Off - Control Your Browser History on Microsoft Edge
History On/Off is an efficient add-on to your Edge browser. With a single click, it pauses the history logging and another click resumes it. When the history logging is off, a red 'X' is displayed on the toolbar button as a clear indicator. Although it prevents the recording of browsing data, it doesn't interfere with cookies, local storage, or browser cache. However, when the history recording is paused, the back/forward buttons of the browser will not function as they would need the history to do their job.

This is the best addon that I have ever used!!!!!!!!
by Leo, 2023-07-21
It worked really well till lately it automatically turns on and doesn't delete the recently closed pages. This has gotten very annoying as it does nothing but takes up more space on my computer.
