Issue descriptionUserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_13_0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/62.0.3202.18 Safari/537.36 Steps to reproduce the problem: 1.

A link should opens a page on Google Chrome What went wrong? When I click on a link a new Chrome instance opens (new bouncing icon on dock), even if I already have Chrome opened in background, and instead of opening the page on the link, it shows a blank tab. Did this work before? N/A Chrome version: 62.0.3202.18 Channel: dev OS Version: OS X 10.13.0 Flash Version: This problem is started from Mac OS 10.13 beta 1

Thanks for the report! Are you seeing this on the latest 10.13 seed? I can't seem to repro on 17A315i

No luck reproducing on the latest version, either. Do you have multiple channels installed? How many Chrome instances are listed in the "Default web browser" popup menu in System Preferences > General?

Thanks for keep trying that. In my 2 machines I have both canary and dev installed. The bug is in both machines and with each browser set as default

Thanks. I'm still curious re: How many Chrome instances are listed in the "Default web browser" popup menu in System Preferences > General? Specifically, I'm wondering if it's trying to open a different version than what's currently open.

Sorry I didn't specified that. There is one chrome (normal) and one canary in the default browser menu, same as what I have installed. I thought the same as you when I experienced this bug. I'll try to remove them with AppZapper and reinstall them later when I get back home

Clean reainstalled them, all works fine right now. Maybe in the past I switched from beta to dev and it caused a wrong link addessing... But I don't know why before High Sierra there wasn't this problem.

@reporter/lgrey@: Shall we close this as this is resolved on reinstallation?

No need to apologize :) 10.13 had some filesystem changes that might have caused this.

This could be problematic, links do not work properly as described above on two of my machines since upgrading to High Sierra, note I have only ever had standard chrome installed, no dev or canary. I suspect there will be a lot of confused users if they all are required to reinstall cleanly to resolve it. |
