BingBeGone

Troubleshooting 🛠️

---

The extension does nothing

Check:

• extension is enabled
• Developer Mode is enabled (if sideloading)
• permissions were accepted

Then reload the extension.

Chrome enjoys pretending nothing changed until threatened.

---

Redirects are not happening

Make sure the URL is actually a Bing search page.

Supported example:

https://www.bing.com/search?q=snakes

Unsupported example:

https://www.bing.com/images

---

Settings are not syncing

Check:

• Chrome sync is enabled
• browser profile sync is active
• storage permissions are granted

Also sometimes Chrome sync just enters a spiritual journey for a few hours.

---

The redirect page loops forever

You probably:

• redirected the extension page itself
• used a recursive custom search engine
• invented new forms of suffering

Reset your custom search engine URL.

---

The extension broke after a browser update

Manifest V3 is an ever-changing emotional experience.

Reload the extension first.

Microsoft Edge asked if I “meant” to change browser behavior

Yes. You did. Stand your ground.
