[Issue] Chrome Launches Empty New Window, No URL Visited
Choosy v1.2.2
Chrome Version: 62.0.3202.62 (Official Build) beta (64-bit)
macOS 10.13
Steps to reproduce:
1. Several Chrome windows opened (chrome has a pending update)
2. Launched link with Chrome (via Slack > Choosy)
3. Tried removing and adding chrome back to choosy browser list but issue persists
Expected:
1. New tab opened in most recently active window, url is visited
Actual Result:
1. New empty window launched, url not visited
Reported System Error:
{subsystem: 'com.apple.launchservices', category: 'default', description: 'LSExceptions shared instance invalidated for timeout.'}
ps, love your app
p.p.s the ajax request event (triggered while trying to type a title) is really slowing down this page's performance on my machine. Pinwheels every time it's fetching results in the middle of typing

FWIW, I was having this issue even though Chrome did not have a pending update. However, restarting Chrome did fix the behavior.

[UPDATE – FIX]
Issue seems to have been correlated with Chrome's pending update. Restarting the browser solved the issue.
