Hi Chromium Team,

Our chrome extension (Trellix EndPoint Security Web Control) uses webnavigation API's to intercept url navigation and block them if user's have listed any URL in our block list DB.

Currently we are facing an issue where a user has listed https://chromewebstore.google.com/ in the block list but our extension was not able to block this URL, when we investigated, we are seeing that chrome is not sending any navigation event when vising https://chromewebstore.google.com/ , If we don't get navigation event, then there is no way we can block it.

I'm requesting if there's any limitation from chrome end that prevents navigation events for https://chromewebstore.google.com/ , or if there is any alternate solution to resolve this issue.

Thank you in advance.

This is expected. Chrome does not allow extensions to interact with the chrome web store.
