The issue once seemed to be fixed at 14:00 (JST), but it recurred 30 minutes later.

Unable to reproduce on my environment just now (15:00 JST). I suspect that the server is being updated or some rolling update mechanism affects the reproducibility.

Thanks!

Thanks for all the reports. We've identified the fix and should be rolling it out shortly.

Is this still an issue for anyone? It is still an issue for me, but I was wondering whether a fix had been introduced for anyone, and whether anyone knew when an update would be rolled out to Windows 10

@c22: can you try restarting your device?

Chrome seems to have updated itself, while open, and issue seems to have been resolved for me, for now!

For anyone still seeing this issue, because of potential caching you need to close your browser window for the fix to appear.

I just started up my computer and Chrome this morning and am only now seeing this.
Version 67.0.3396.99 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Issue 865484 has been merged into this issue.

Still got this issue, running Version 67.0.3396.99 (Official Build) (64-bit). Any ETA and when it will be fixed?

Completely closed Chrome checked no processes were still running then open Chrome and the issues still persist. This should not have been closed.

lankymart@ and  franki23@: Could you please try clearing your cache? To do that, you need to go to chrome://history and click on "Clear browsing data". If you don't want to do that, the update will eventually make it down to you.

For the curious, the reason the fix doesn't always automatically apply is because of how service workers function.
