Recently, after it working for a while, the console in Chromium gave-out, as in doesn't work.
Pressing ctrl+i, ctrl+shift+j, or f12 doesn't work. I tried pressing the three-dots, then to "Developer tools"under "More tools" manually, but pressing that option doesn't work, nor does "Inspect" in the default content menu work.
The options aren't grayed out (at least not that I can tell), but nothing happens, and I'm not notified of any errors.
I'm on Arch Linux + KDE Plasma, with x86_64 archt.
Extra details:

Did you have it undocked (in its own Window) and has it ended up off the screen (so it has opened but you can't see it as it is outside of the screen bounds)?
Other than that I would be launching ingonito and seeing if it works, if it does, disable plugins, perhaps one updated and broke it.
You probably tried these but they are the only things that spring to mind! I would just delete it and resintall and hope that fixes it (I am not a very sophisticated Developer it seems 🤣!)!
I never knew you could pop the console out of Chrome. - I did not.
It doesn't work an Incognito either.
My last ditch effort would be to reinstall Chromium, unfortunately without an error message (perhaps look up where the error logs are saved for chromium and see if there is anything there) it is the only thing I can think to do!
Hopefully someone else more familiar with Chromium will pop up and know what the issue is, might be worth raising an issue over at the repo?
Maybe try reinstalling chrome? Let me know if that helps
Is there any way I can save the profile? Because it has all my passwords, and everything resets on a new profile, for some reason.
Yes, you can always sign back in and sync info
I'm not currently syncing with Google, though. (And I don't plan to.)
Is this possible w/o syncing to Google?
