Gets Stuck Can't Disable/Enable Extension #381

Open alondonb opened 7 years ago

alondonb commented 7 years ago

First, Thank You. For someone like me with light sensitivity due to injury this is a life saver for computer work.

Strangely thought, sometimes without warning this will stop functioning. I try to enable/disable but nothing happens. It usually gets stuck in the "off" mode at night, which is awful because I have to restart my computer for it to work again. Even a browser restart doesn't do it.

Any ideas on how I can "reboot" the extension? Thank you!

You should be able to "reboot" it by going to the extensions page and unchecking the "enable" box, then checking it again.

That said, I wish I knew what was causing this. I use Deluminate myself every day, and I've never seen behavior like you're describing. It might be worth trying to find a way for the extension to generate debugging information people can include with their bug reports like this...

Thanks for the tip, I'll try this.

I'll keep an eye on it as well to see if I can pin it down.
