Cant add new profile for settings

Open AliM1988 opened this issue 3 years ago • 9 comments

I have already 2 profiles, "Default settings" and another. When I add new profile, after enter name, new profile doesn't create.

Environment : OS: Win8 Browser: Chrome Version: 103.0.5060.134 (Official Build) (64-bit)

I cannot reproduce this bug. Could you please open chrome-extension://hplobilfmnmpdildkekfnlfkmidnpooe/src/ui/pages/options.html#, press F12 to open the developer tools, click on "Console" tab at the top of the the developer tools window, and copy/paste here the error message you see? Alternatively, you can export your settings, zip the exported file and attach it here. Thus, I should be able to reproduce the bug.

It is the error appear after enter name for new profile:

ui-options.js:362 Uncaught (in promise) {message: 'A listener indicated an asynchronous response by r…age channel closed before a response was received'} message: "A listener indicated an asynchronous response by returning true, but the message channel closed before a response was received" [[Prototype]]: Object

This error message does not really help me and seems unrelated to your bug. I think I need your settings to understand what's wrong.

Unfortunately, it's still impossible for me to reproduce the bug. Maybe there is some misunderstanding. What do you mean when you say "new profile doesn't create"?

I click + button and enter the name for new profile then click OK. So I check profiles, there is no new profile. Actually nothing done.

I think it is good implement periodic local backup of profiles (e.g. monthly) without overwrite on previous one. So, the users access all backups. My profiles were reset several times.

I found it. When I disable synchronize options I can add new profile. If I enable it again, prevoius 2 profiles returns back and it doesn't let me add new profile. Since "synchronize option" there isn't on exported file, you can't reproduce the bug.

If you remember, adding Google account synchronizing was my feature request (here). Also, I reported that this feature has a bug (here).

Same thing is happening in Firefox. After deselecting "synchronize options" I can add new profile. Otherwise the profile selection window is empty and clicking on any option changes current profile to default one.

I identified the cause of this bug. I'm currently implementing a fix.
