How can I reload my Chrome extension when it is not possible to do so from chrome://extensions because of my extension? -

i'm testing out chrome extension development , testing how page redirect through chrome extension.

well works, because of can't access extension settings page. how manually reload/disable extension? or mac terminal? chrome pretty unusable own code.

your question seems "how can reload chrome extension when not possible chrome://extensions because of extension?"

a possible answer is:

1. press shift + esc open task manager (or click on hamburger menu -> more tools -> task manager).
2. select extension.
3. click on "end process" button.
4. now can visit chrome://extensions , reload extension in usual way.

the previous works if there extension process, not if extension purely content script extension. if still want use above method, can force extension process become visible opening chrome-extension://[extension id here]/manifest.json in new tab.
