[BUG] Unexpected automatic closure of non-grouped tabs despite 'Close inactive tabs' being unused

---

Issue Description

I’m experiencing an issue where tabs that are not part of any group are being closed automatically. This happens even when the "Close inactive tabs" (in-extension) button hasn't been used. It feels like the extension is closing inactive tabs on its own without any triggering action, which is an unexpected behaviour.

---

Steps to Reproduce

1. Install the TabSort‑DevKay extension.
2. Open multiple browser tabs.
3. Do not group these tabs.
4. Do not activate or click the "Close inactive tabs" feature.
5. Leave some tabs idle (inactive) for over 10 minutes.
6. Observe whether these ungrouped tabs get closed automatically.

---

Observed Behavior

• Ungrouped tabs are being automatically closed after being inactive, despite not using the "Close inactive tabs" button.

Expected Behavior

• Tabs that are not grouped should remain open, unless the "Close inactive tabs" feature is explicitly activated by the user.

---

Additional Context

This behavior conflicts with how the extension interface communicates the feature expectations. Since "Tab Inactivity Tracking" is described as a feature to automatically close inactive tabs, it’s unclear whether this should apply only to tabs within groups or to all tabs. The automatic closure of ungrouped, inactive tabs without user consent may lead to data loss or disruption of workflow.
