Chrome bug preventing search from working #40

Open cxw42 opened 4 years ago

cxw42 commented 4 years ago

Today for the first time https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=490915 negatively affected me (version below).

Steps: Run a regex search from the popup on any Internet page for text on that page

Expected: Search result count listed in the popup

Observed: Result count stays at 0 of 0

Request: Would you be willing to update the search function to test for the case described below, warn, and still perform a search using the default settings? Thanks for considering this request!

Analysis

Here, the extension (reasonably) assumes Chrome will behave as documented :) . However, Chrome instead returns undefined.

MCVE (in the developer console, with "Chrome Regex Search" selected, after the above error occurs):

chrome.storage.local.get(null,(r)=>{console.log(chrome.runtime.lastError); console.log(r);})
undefined
{}
    message: "IO error: .../LOCK: Access denied. (ChromeMethodBFE: 15::LockFile::5)"
    get message: ƒ ()
    __proto__: Object
undefined
