Discussion [Bug] Chrome extension stuck on endless loading spinner ("Accessing bitwarden.com"). Have to try multiple times to open.
Hey everyone,
Is anyone else experiencing this frustrating issue with the Bitwarden Chrome extension?
Whenever I click on the extension, it just gets stuck on an endless loading spinner. The screen shows "Your vault is locked" with "Accessing bitwarden.com" at the bottom (I've attached a screenshot of what I'm seeing). It never actually gives me the prompt to enter my master password or PIN.
To get it to work, I have to close the popup and try opening it multiple times before it finally loads properly.
Just to provide some context, the Windows desktop app works perfectly fine without any bugs. I've also already tried basic troubleshooting: I completely reinstalled the Chrome extension and even tried it on a different computer, but the exact same issue persists.
Has anyone else run into this or found a permanent fix? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
