Does Auto Refresh Plus continue to work if my browser is closed or if I shut down my PC?

Auto Refresh Plus operates within your browser, so it requires the browser to be open and active for it to function. If you close your browser or shut down your PC, Auto Refresh Plus will pause until you reopen your browser and activate it again.

How Auto Refresh Plus Works

  • Browser Dependency: Auto Refresh Plus is a browser extension, which means it relies on the browser being open to perform its tasks.
  • Active Sessions: The extension refreshes pages and monitors data only when the browser is running.

What Happens When You Close Your Browser

  • Paused Operation: Once you close your browser, Auto Refresh Plus stops working. It will not perform any refreshes or monitoring tasks.
  • Resumption: When you reopen your browser, Auto Refresh Plus will resume its functions from where it left off, as long as the extension is enabled.

What Happens When You Shut Down Your PC

  • Complete Pause: Shutting down your PC will completely halt all operations of Auto Refresh Plus.
  • Reactivation: Upon restarting your PC and reopening your browser, Auto Refresh Plus will continue its tasks based on the settings you configured before the shutdown.

By understanding these operational details, you can effectively manage Auto Refresh Plus and ensure it functions as expected.
