Extension was working well for my occasional usage for a long time, but recently when I try to use it it'll start deselecting most of the tabs I'm trying to select before I can actually do anything with them

Doesn't allow copying selected tabs anymore (even though this is exactly why I installed it so I'm uninstalling it now)
