Chromedriver launching data;; browser after updating to V100 (both chromedriver and Chrome browser)

I'm running automated test scripts using webdriver.io. Issue is, the code stopped running after updating the chromedriver to 100.0.4896.60 which is recommended for chrome browser v100 that is currently installed. It was working fine in all the previous versions (v93 thru v99). Im getting the data;; screen and I dont see any errors on the terminal (VS Code)
I wont be able to upgrade or downgrade the browser versions. Could anyone help?
It was a case of access issues with DevTools of chrome. After getting proper access the issue is resolved.

Uninstalls from ChromeOS increased in my extension. Have ChromeOS any browser API difference from other OS?

I have the extension New Tab Studio https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/new-tab-studio-countdown/epngggilgnflanfabeldfpbgponcgpgl
Several days ago uninstalls from ChromeOS became so big (other OS - as usual).
I wanna try to install ChromeOS on VirtualBox and test my extension, but it's not a very easy task, maybe it's easier to buy Chromebook.
But first of all,
Can my extension has specific bug only for ChromeOS?
Also, I have anonymous messages from google forms, that app crashes (on the background button click), but I cannot reproduce any bugs on Mac OS or Windows.
I reproduced it on Linux (i think that the cores of ChromeOS browser and Linux are the same)
So, the case was that I had the image with path /all.jpeg, but was requesting /All.jpeg. MacOS and Windows was fine with this typo, they even show me the image.
But Linux (and I guess ChromeOS) crashed the extension. And the crash was observed only in the extension installed from Chrome Web Store (my local production build just didn't show the image, but worked fine)

SSL protocol error

I have Lubuntu 14.04 32 bit.
When I try to access any google site using chrome I get SSL protocol error.
I can access yahoo or slack, but cant access google.com or gmail or youtube.
Firefox works correctly.
date and time are correct.
I tried to disable QUIC.
I tried to use wifi or ethernet.
I tried to reinstall chrome and lubuntu too.
I cant access 'change proxy settings' I get:
When running Google Chrome under a supported desktop environment, the system proxy settings will be used. However, either your system is not supported or there was a problem launching your system configuration.
But you can still configure via the command line. Please see man x-www-browser for more information on flags and environment variables.
any help please?
I think problem was an old version (version 45) of google chrome for 32 bit linux system. After installing latest version (version 48) of google chrome for 32 bit linux system, there is no more ssl error.
You can download chrome version 48 from here: google-chrome-stable_48.0.2564.116-1_i386.deb

Selenium - unable to discover open window in chrome

I am trying to run a test using chrome, but when the browser launches the test fails and I see the below error.
org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException: unknown error: unable to
discover open window in chrome
I am using the most recent versions of selenium and chrome driver
Webdriver - 2.46
Chrome driver - 2.16
Chrome browser - 43
This error only occurs when running the tests on my local machine. If I run these tests on a grid VM, chrome will open without any issues and the test will run. The grid VM and my local machine have the exact same versions of chrome, chrome driver, and webdriver.
What can I look for on my local machine to resolve the issue? I've tried to reinstall chrome, but that didn't help.

Inconsistent Extension Behavior on Google Chrome Installs

I have observed inconsistent behavior using the Web Developer extension (Chris Pederick) in Google Chrome on these different machines:
My PC running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
A VirturalBox Virtual Machine (VM) running Ubuntu 12 on my PC
A VM running a updated, fresh install of Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit on my PC
I have the same version of Google Chrome and Web Developer installed on all these machines. However, for some reason, Web Developer does not work as expected on my PC. It works perfectly on the Ubuntu VM and the Windows VM.
On my PC, about 95% of the time the Custom Tools functions (Validate CSS, Validate HTML, etc.) in Web Developer do nothing when clicked (they should open new tabs to the W3C validators).
I have uninstalled and reinstalled Google Chrome on my PC several times. I have even manually gone through the file system and registry to completely remove all traces of Google Chrome before reinstalling. Nothing I've attempted so far has corrected this problem.
Of course, due to Google's 'field trials', all these machines have slightly different variations (as reported by chrome://version), but I would doubt that is the source of the problem.
Any ideas or suggestions?
OK, here's a possible clue...
It has baffled me why this problem NEVER occurs in my virtual machine (VM); only on the host. Same version of OS, Chrome, and Web Developer installed on both. May have discovered why.
My standard settings for VMs is to use only one CPU. As a test, I changed the VM to use two CPUs. BOOM! I can reproduce the problem on my VM. Change back to one CPU - can not reproduce the problem.
Does this suggest a problem with threading in Chrome?
