New Extension Update Searches Not Working (only does 1-2 searches before error) #120

Closed GreenSussy closed 1 year ago

GreenSussy commented 1 year ago

I have read the Troubleshooting Yes

Describe the bug I recently saw the new update that rolled out for the extension. I updated it, and it worked fine for about 3-4 days. Now, it gives me a red err. When I click on it, it turns blue but nothing happens. For some reason, it gives me only 6 Edge searches per day.

Since when Since 2 days ago.

Screenshots image This is all I can find in the chrome://extensions. Let me know if you need anything else.

Your country I am residing in the United States.

Your web browser and OS Chrome Version 112.0.5615.138 (Official Build) (64-bit) Windows 11 Home 22H2

Additional context I wonder what the issue is. Also, just a side note - it still says "Extension Update Available" even after updating it to the latest release. I don't know if this is directly or indirectly related but I just wanted to point it out. Thanks!

I'm unsure if this is MS's attempt to counter the script. If the user agent works once, it should work all the way.

it still says "Extension Update Available" even after updating it to the latest release

Have you installed the hotfix?

GreenSussy commented 1 year ago

@tmxkn1 Oh I didn't see the updated ZIP file. Now that message is gone. Seems that the main issue is still there. Please do keep us updated on any new fixes/findings you have. Thanks!

I had the same issue but I fixed it. I just cleared my web browser cache completely. After logging back into microsoft rewards it began functioning again as intended. Just clear your web browser cache.

warmfire540 commented 1 year ago

@Aseese hmm that's not helping - mine has recently stopped doing searches w/ only this visible error. Also I can't click some links in the extension w/ the latest release

I noticed today that it is locked at 3 searches for ME. Wonder why.

They might have. Last tuesday/wednesday they started cracking down on the VPN/multi country trick, and some others, and that's the last day this script has worked for me. Since then, I've had to delete site data/cache 2 or 3 times for it to function again.

What version are you running?

LeFlairGoD commented 1 year ago

Ich hatte das gleiche Problem, aber ich habe es behoben. Ich habe gerade den Cache meines Webbrowsers komplett geleert. Nachdem ich mich wieder bei Microsoft Rewards angemeldet hatte, funktionierte es wieder wie vorgesehen. Löschen Sie einfach den Cache Ihres Webbrowsers.

Danke, das hat mir geholfen.Bild

Welche Version hast du?

Worked for me too! Thanks!

GreenSussy commented 1 year ago

Just tried clearing the cookies and cache. Doesn't seem to change anything on my end; I'll let it sit for a night and see what happens tomorrow.

@tmxkn1 sorry for being annoying, but do you have any new updates on this issue?

LeFlairGoD commented 1 year ago

@tmxkn1 sorry for being annoying, but do you have any new updates on this issue?

Install the latest Chrome update (version 113.0.5672.63), empty the cache completely (note that you usually only empty the current day) and install the latest version of the add-on (2.24.2.1) :

Sorry I am currently on vacation so will have very limited access to internet and have no means to run any test.

Interesting, I have 2 accounts, one of them collected automatically today, the other one I had to clear the cache first so that it collects.

GreenSussy commented 1 year ago

@tmxkn1 Miraculously, it is working perfectly now. Just curious - did you make any changes on your side?

LeeRyanSA commented 1 year ago

It magically started to work once again. hm

I did not. It could be some weird issue on MS's end which is not uncommon.
