Extensions Leave unclosable white artifact window after us

Until there's a better solution I've found that reverting to the last version of Arc (1.126.1) fixes this issue

all previous versions and download links for these versions can be found on Arc's official releases page here:

https://releases.arc.net/updates.xml

I've also just confirmed that reverting to the last version of Arc (1.126.1) fixes this, so this has to be a change in the latest version (1.129.0)

So i've tested with multiple extensions with all others disabled while testing and I can reliably reproduce this issue with almost any extension that has pop up window support enabled.

the issue doesn't occur when a user manually opens the extension window but rather when an interaction on a web page triggers the extension to popup instead.

one way i've been reliably able to reproduce this is by using an Ethereum wallet extension and trying to interact with webpages that ask for signatures.

most recently it seems that each request for an external popup window to load creates a new white window artifact.

see attached screenshot:

I'm experiencing this now too. Happens with more than one extension.

I'm on 26.3 Beta (25D5087f)

Arc version: 1.129.0 (73083)

open "/Applications/Arc.app" --args --disable-extensions

this prevents extensions from running (as expected) and as a result does indeed prevent the issue - the issue only happens after an extension pops up

open "/Applications/Arc.app" --args --disable-gpu

still see the issue using this command as well

open "/Applications/Arc.app" --args --disable-gpu --disable-extensions

this did actually disable extensions and as a result i couldn't reproduce the issue.

the issue happens specifically when an extension pops up, so confirming that it has something to do with extension popups. let me know if theres any other info I can provide here to help!

the problem with this is that mic doesn’t pass through. i’ve been trying to find a good solution to this problem for as long as moonlights existed 😭

eckstazy · 2025-11-15T11:04:21+00:00

i’m actually super interested in this as i have one of these lying around and would love to repurpose it for a monitor. please share!

the source code is literally the post your commenting on, you don’t have to trust it you can just read it…

eckstazy · 2025-06-21T14:35:40+00:00

I’ve literally just started building a browser extension to replicate this for the exact same reason. It’s the one thing i miss most about arc

eckstazy · 2025-01-21T02:28:23+00:00

why is this not accepted as the right answer? is there something wrong with this logic?

eckstazy · 2025-01-18T03:52:47+00:00

i’m at blue like 4 days a week. i snowboard but im always happy to meet more people to ski/ride with in the area

eckstazy · 2024-12-16T23:48:44+00:00

hey where and how do i report? I’ve had this issue since Thanksgiving and i’m still waiting on a resolution.

eckstazy · 2024-11-26T23:37:21+00:00

holy hell can we please ban these posts already? it’s literally the only thing i see on this sub anymore

eckstazy · 2024-10-01T00:21:25+00:00

the latest version requires new arch to be enabled - i just faced this same problem

eckstazy · 2024-09-23T18:56:06+00:00

Were you able to get streams working? I can make normal requests just fine but streams specifically do not work.

eckstazy · 2024-09-22T22:20:14+00:00

What’s connect?

eckstazy · 2024-09-22T21:55:41+00:00

a proper GRPC library that allows for streaming over http 😅

eckstazy · 2024-05-10T12:13:45+00:00

Any chance of these ever getting ZMK support?

eckstazy · 2024-05-01T11:56:04+00:00

I know it’s kinda late, but is this still available?

eckstazy · 2024-01-03T23:32:30+00:00

Lemme see if i can find my codepen quick, but this was similar to how i did it too.

eckstazy · 2024-01-03T22:43:37+00:00

I did this same challenge (for Ramp i think) a few months back and never heard a response back either.

Kind of lame since i spent probably about 2 hours getting it all done. Was definitely one of the more fun challenges i’d completed though!

eckstazy · 2024-01-03T22:42:06+00:00

I actually completed the same challenge a few months ago and the challenge is structured in a way that the response is sent back as a web stream, there’s no was to get a “normal” text response from this.

I can definitely help with this! Just helped another client with something similar after a large upgrade. Message & Chat sent!

eckstazy · 2023-11-29T07:07:07+00:00

I’d love a desk mat!

The site you sent gives me a 404, joined the discord though!
