    sobby Sorry but it's not a solution, it's a workaround and it doesn't even work for me (the workaround returns undefined which means I can't even use it). I also have this issue: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/70286901/edge-extension-crashes-the-whole-browser-on-api-call-after-latest-update-launch

      Hi, I agree it's not a solution it is just a workaround but Can you please share some code why it is returning undefined.

        sobby Sorry didn't notice you asked for code! 😄

        const arguments = ''; // Hidden due to privacy
const authURL = 'https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/authorize' + arguments;
const res = chrome.windows.create({
  focused: true,
  height : 800,
  width: 800,
  url: authURL
});
console.log(res);
