I'm having the same issue. Chrome Version 114.0.5735.110 (Official Build) (64-bit)

HI @rkadi-discovery. I was able to resolve this by doing the following. Maybe it will work for you?

Removing the extension from chrome.
Then clear all cookies and cache, and close chrome.
Reinstalling the extension, and close browser again.
Open chrome again. It works now.

I'm investigating, but it looks like Google may have changed it so that DevTool panels (e.g., Omnibug) cannot be added to any of the chrome:// URLs, which includes the blank new tab (chrome://new-tab-page)

I guess it's similar, but it's only an issue for me in an incognito window/tab.

Right now the only way I can consistently get Omnibug to appear in Chrome or Edge v115 is: open a new tab > change address to about:blank > open devtools

Interesting that it works on about: pages but not chrome://. It's still unfortunately blocked with Google to fix :(
