[🐛 Bug]: CDP session is creating new window rather than using same window

[jacob25paul]

What happened?

Background
I need to click on edge extension menu which is outside of DOM and open particular extension along with a web page. Able to do this locally using selenium action class. But failed on selenium grid

Description
So we are trying the same via CDP in selenium grid. We already have edge profile switching works in order to get the extension. These are the steps which I am trying to do. But devtools opens in seperate window everytime we start the session

1. Open edge window with required profile where the extension is available
2. Open the required web page
3. Open edge extension by clicking from extension menu
4. test extension

How can we reproduce the issue?

1. Open edge window with required profile where the extension is available
2. Open the required web page
3. Open edge extension by clicking from extension menu
4. test extension

Relevant log output

Sample code

public void cLickOnExtension() throws AWTException, InterruptedException, IOException {
WebDriver driver = new RemoteWebDriver(new URL( spec "gridURL"),setEdge0ptions());
driver = new Augmenter(.augment(driver);
driver.get ("chrome-extension://extensionID/sidepanel.html);
DevTools devTools = ((EdgeDriver) driver).getDevTools():
devTools. createSession:
devTools. send (Page.navigate url: "edge://extensions/".
referrer. Optional. empty, transitionType: Optional.empty), frameld: Optional. empty, referrerPolicy: Optional.empty));
devTools. send (Log.enable): devTools. getCdpSession);

System.out.println(*##opened extension menu");
