Google Chrome Bug?

this message appears all the time in chrome developer tool's console: Port error: Could not establish connection. Receiving end does not exist. miscellaneous_bindings:232 chromeHid

Solution 1:

It seems to be a problem with the Google Dictionary (by Google)

This script doesn't seem to exist or is not accessible by that port.

Solution 2:

Based on some googling, this is a problem with a chrome extension, but it may not be clear which. (For me, it was Feedly).

The quickest way to find out which is causing the problem:

1. Disable all your chrome extensions. (Chrome menu > tools > extensions)
2. Refresh a page - hopefully the port error should be gone now
3. Re-enable your extensions one by one, refreshing the page after each, 'til the error pops up again in the console. You should now have your culprit.

I know this could be a pain if there are a lot of extensions :/ personally, I took it as a chance to prune the unused / unworthy extensions while I was going through them.
