Edge + Chrome plugins simultaneously will not allow authentication via desktop application

[rollsch]

Steps To Reproduce

1. Install Windows 11 22G2 22621.2715
2. Install Chrome Version 119.0.6045.200 (Official Build) (64-bit)
3. Install Edge Version 119.0.2151.93 (Official build) (64-bit)
4. Install Bitwarden for Windows
   Version 2023.10.1
   Shell 25.9.1
   Renderer 114.0.5735.289
   Node 18.15.0
   Architecture x64
   Configure with
   

Open Chrome and visit a page which has a password field.
Click the bitwarden icon (which is greyed out)

Sometimes it sits there infinitely with the spinner icon. Other times you get the following error. "Desktop communication Interrupted. Desktop application invalidated the secure communication channel. Please retry this operation"

Opening Bitwarden prior to opening chrome or after seems to make no real difference.

Follow the same steps above with Microsoft edge. Windows Hello pops up, enter PIN and everything works as expected

Expected Result

Can use edge and chrome plugins on windows at the same time

Actual Result

Can only use edge

Issue Tracking Info

• I understand that work is tracked outside of Github. A PR will be linked to this issue should one be opened to address it, but Bitwarden doesn't use fields like "assigned", "milestone", or "project" to track progress.

Hi @rollsch

I attempted to reproduce your issue and was unable to do so. I think your error could have its origin in a misconfiguration

You will need to enable the "Require verification for browser integration"

This did fix the issue, however on my other PCs this is not required. I will post on forums next time.

Thanks
