When requested, a windows.Window contains an array of tabs.Tab objects. You mustdeclare the "tabs" permission in your manifest if you need access to the url,pendingUrl, title, or favIconUrl properties of tabs.Tab. For example:
For example, say an extension creates a few tabs or windows from a single HTML file, and that theHTML file contains a call to tabs.query(). The current window is the window that contains thepage that made the call, no matter what the topmost window is.
If true, the windows.Window object has a tabs property that contains a list of the tabs.Tab objects. The Tab objects only contain the url, pendingUrl, title, and favIconUrl properties if the extension's manifest file includes the "tabs" permission.
The ID of the window. Window IDs are unique within a browser session. In some circumstances a window may not be assigned an ID property; for example, when querying windows using the sessions API, in which case a session ID may be present.
The offset of the window from the left edge of the screen in pixels. In some circumstances a window may not be assigned a left property; for example, when querying closed windows from the sessions API.
A URL or array of URLs to open as tabs in the window. Fully-qualified URLs must include a scheme, e.g., ' ', not 'www.google.com'. Non-fully-qualified URLs are considered relative within the extension. Defaults to the New Tab Page.
Promises are supported in Manifest V3 and later, but callbacks are provided for backward compatibility. You cannot use both on the same function call. The promise resolves with the same type that is passed to the callback.
If true, causes the window to be displayed in a manner that draws the user's attention to the window, without changing the focused window. The effect lasts until the user changes focus to the window. This option has no effect if the window already has focus. Set to false to cancel a previous drawAttention request.
If true, brings the window to the front; cannot be combined with the state 'minimized'. If false, brings the next window in the z-order to the front; cannot be combined with the state 'fullscreen' or 'maximized'.
Fired when the currently focused window changes. Returns chrome.windows.WINDOW_ID_NONE if all Chrome windows have lost focus. Note: On some Linux window managers, WINDOW_ID_NONE is always sent immediately preceding a switch from one Chrome window to another.

I found a bug in Windows 11 when I opened a chrome profile, it shows up two profile icons instead of just one (see the screenshot). In Windows 10, it used to open with the bottom-right icon, but I think Windows 11 added a new place for the icon in the upper-right, but overlapping it with the old icon place instead of replacing it.
This worked for me. But I have two separate Chrome accounts for work and personal, and I realized when opening my personal account that my Google account icon/badge no longer shows. So my question is: if badges were turned off, what is the remaining icon on my Chrome taskbar and why is it still on, but my personal one isn't?
Since Windows 10 ONLY allows me as a sys admin to set a list of default application associations via an .xml file ONE TIME at a computer login or a user login via GPO, HOW IN THE WORLD DOES GOOGLE CHROME REPEATEDLY KEEP CHANGING THE DEFAULT PDF VIEWER TO ITSELF FOR MY USERS????
I've been working on this for months now and it is really piss poor that Microsoft does not let sys admins control the default file associations to the degree they are doing it now. That would be FAR MORE SECURE than MS deciding that their stupid piss poor browser is the best options if a registry key that controls it is changed. These types of controls might be fine for stupid home users, but not for business. If MS can't successfully allow for optimal functionality between both then perhaps they need to have two lines of products one for business where sys admins are allowed to do their jobs and one for stupid home users.
I just had another user with this issue today. They logged on to their computer, my GPO did its job set the default pdf viewer to Adobe Reader, the user opened/closed several pdf files no problem. A short time later goes to open a pdf file and it opens in CHROME!!!
I scrubbed through the registry on the computer and NOWHERE was there an association between chrome and pdf files, in fact it was quite the opposite every pdf file association and userchoice key was set to Adobe as it should be. However in settings, apps, default apps, view apps by file types it listed chrome and all shortcuts to pdfs had a chrome icon and opened in chrome.
So obviously there is a serious FLAW in Microcraps plan to protect and keep a users default application file associations. So if anyone out there knows how chrome is doing this, when I can't even get around it as a sys admin, or can help fix the root cause of this issue, I would greatly appreciate it.
This issue just came up for me today out of the blue. Everything was fine before with Adobe being the default PDF viewer, and then suddenly all my PDF files have the Chrome icon beside it. In my Outlook, all PDF attachments that people sent me also show the Chrome icon.
I am NOT an IT person but I googled to find various possible fixes and I tried a couple with no success. The conversation here is way over my head but since I'm desperate to restore "order", I kept reading. Anyway, I found a simple fix and it actually worked. I forget who to credit but I found it somewhere online, so thanks to that person.
Basically, I went to a file on my computer (which has the Chrome icon beside it). I right-clicked on it and selected "Open with". At this point, I was thinking, "Yeah, yeah, I tried this already". But I read this particular instruction more closely from the webpage I was on, and it said to select "Choose another app". I did that, and Adobe was already selected. BUT THE KEY TRICK IS TO CHECK OFF: "Always use this app to open .pdf files".
I thought, "Can it be this simple?" I tried something like this already but not this actual last step, and sure enough, normalcy was restored! All my PDF files are now showing the Adobe icon beside it, along with the attachments in my Outlook inbox that are supposed to show Adobe.
We are aware of this, and it is our current best option for resolving the issue. However, it has not been a 100% solution. We have had several dozen repeat issues after doing this method, So we are still looking for the silver bullet on this one. What I'm really trying to understand though is how Chrome is able to insert itself as the default pdf viewer in the first place. Supposedly Microcrap has put measures in place to only allow the user to select the default apps, and us as admins can set them only ONCE at initial login, and if it is done any other way Microcrap will revert it to their crappy browser as the default pdf viewer. However in this case they are not able to do it for some reason, Chrome inserts itself and Microcrap leaves it alone, Why?????? How?????? Oh, yeah, it is a Microcrap solution!!!
Thank you so much for a straightforward and quick solution to this issue. I didn't really feel like digging around using the admin tools and the context setting that you have indicated here worked like a champ for me. Not that it works for everyone of course; it is likely that the GPO solution is the more solid one. I was lucky in that this worked and thank you for posting it. Man was it annoying the heck out of me. I am fed up, as I am sure everyone else is, with applications hijacking these settings in users' profiles.
Thank you for posting this! Oddly, after I searched on Google to find an answer to this problem, when I went back to my Adobe file that had been "hijacked" to open as a Google Doc, all of my once hijacked documents now showed they were Adobe files WITHOUT making any changes to them. Strange, huh!
Just in case it decided to revert back, I took your advice and checked off the box that said to always us Adobe to open these files, so we'll see what the future brings. (This is not the first time I've had this issue, and it's only with one of my Adobe folders.)
What the team found was a legacy GPO was used to set either Adobe Read or Adobe Pro as the default PDF reader for the user based on security groups using the next registry key: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts.pdf\UserChoice\Progid. A new Hash value in Windows 10 is also added to UserChoice key.
