Chrome devtools tab reopens the wrong source files after a refresh - google-chrome-devtools

When I use chrome to debug my angular project, I open files in the chrome sources by clicking Ctrl+P/O and entering part of the name. Problem is: when I reload, seems chrome keeps all the wrong files open... so if I debugged into another file (didn't close it! just lost focus) and then reload (like, after sources changed and compiled) chrome will close that file, and might even not remember it in the open recents dropdown... It's like someone sorted in reverse for some reason...
Is there a way to fix the wrong sorting order through settings or configuration somehow?
Am I the only one finding this not very smart/useful? Considering debugging in browser is a pain in the arse as it is, and unfortunately is the only/go-to option for debugging browser apps...

Visual Studio Code losing connection to Live Server

I worked on media queries on my website today and all of a sudden my browser won't refresh the site but rather says "No internet. ERR_INTERNET_DISCONNECTED.
I am using Visual Studio Code with Live Server by Ritwick Dey.
Console warning says "DevTools failed to load source map: Could not load content for chrome-extension://cfhdojbkjhnklbpkdaibdccddilifddb/browser-polyfill.js.map: System error: net::ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND"
"VM10:6745 crbug/1173575, non-JS module files deprecated."
1 Issue: "Audit usage of navigator.userAgent, navigator.appVersion, and navigator.platform"
The site is on my laptop and I'm just working on it offline. What the heck is going on here?
I tried removing the queries.css file to see if that would make a difference. It did not.
Any link on the site will take me to this NO INTERNET page if I am in the responsive dimensions part of DevTools. Also when there is any edit to the html or css in VSC it immediately results in this NO INTERNET page appearing and I have to shut down the port and Go Live again.
I also opened the practice website that we are building for the class and the same thing is happening with that one as well. I have checked my html and css files on validator.w3.org and they have all checked out.
I tried changing the settings in VSC to set the browser to Chrome and also tried in Edge with the same results.
I removed the extension from VSC and reinstalled. No results. Please help!
I had to go into the settings in Devtools and reset.
open Devtools
click the gear icon at right side
scroll to bottom of settings
click "restore defaults and reload"
This made a whole variety of strange problems go away in Devtools and now it works as it should.

All I get is "Client/Server JS Editor"

In XPages, when I try to open a .js or .jss file, I often get just the tab wirh "Client/Server JS Editor" and nothing else, i.e. the file doesn't load. From the Navigator Eclipse view, I can open the same .js or .jss file using any other editor without problems. And then, it sometimes works, but I don't know yet when it does and when it doesn't. The other Editors are okay by the way, .lss opens nicely.
This behaviour I get for a few weeks now. Since it started I reinstalled Notes a few times, I upgraded to FP8, I also reinstalled Windows10 and Windows10 upgraded me to the Creators Update (with the fix, in the end). There's nothing that explains to me why the file doesn't show up on the screen.
Anyone familiar with this? Could you please tell me how to repair this?
Thanks!!
It's a bug introduced with FP8 that is fixed in FP8 Interim Fix 1. See this document for download options for FP8 IF1.
As a workaround you can do a clean/rebuild of the nsf and then use the SSJS editor.

Chrome devtools enable cache

I see a lot of questions about how to disable the browser cache in Google Chrome in order to see the changes on the server, but I have the opposite problem. It seems my browser is doing a hard reload every time I press f5. I want to see how the page looks with my javascript edits. How can I do that?
Pressing only F5 does not do a hard reload in Chrome. When you press F5, the local changes that you've made in CSS or JavaScript will be lost. They don't get stored in the cache. However, you should be able to see your JavaScript changes in devtools take effect if that JavaScript part has not yet been called (like document load event).

Waiting mouse cursor in my GWT application stays infinitely (only in Chrome, only in Production)

Could you please tell me why I have waiting mouse cursor in my gwt application as if page not fully loaded ? It doesn't happen on dev server. It only happens in production. Also it's happening in Chrome but doesn't in IE.
Link to my app is here.
Screenshot
I checked it again in Chrome, but for me no wait cursor is Displayed. But i think, your Google Chrome is trying to open the Google Translate Menu. For me it came quickly and the page loading stopped and the mouse was at normal position.
I prefer you try updating your chrome.
I have also checked the same in my co-workers Laptop and its working fine too.
If problem still persists, please use CCleaner Software and clear all Temporary files, Browser Cache, Recent files etc. Why because, GWT creates a lot of temporary files which may reduce your system performance. So after each cleaning, just restart the system also. I had few such resolutions recently.
I opened your link in Firefox and got the following error
ERROR: Possible problem with your *.gwt.xml module file. The compile
time user.agent value (safari) does not match the runtime user.agent
value (gecko1_8). Expect more errors
This is because, you have compiled your code for Webkit browsers only. If you have added a line as below in your gwt module xml file,
<define-property name="user.agent" values="ie6">
you may either remove it or you can add more browser support via this.

how do i "View in browser" a mvc 2 app?

This is probably a pretty simple question, but I don't see how to view in browser like I would for a traditional asp.net application.
If you're using Visual Studio, Ctrl + F5 to run without debugging and Cassini will take care of the rest (or do you mean from inside visual studio like you can with webforms)?
Sadly, it seems that Microsoft has acknowledged this as a bug.
There are a couple workarounds you can try -- though none of them are exactly what you are looking for. None of them let you start your web page from any arbitrary page simply by right-clicking.
One inexact workaround that is good enough for me is:
If you open up your project properties and go to the Web tab you will see the "Start Action" setting. Change this to "Don't open a page. Wait for a request..."
Now when you start debugging, nothing will happen! (oh no, it's worse!)
Now you can right-click on the Cassini system-tray icon and choose to open the browser from there. You only have to do this on your first session of the day. Once you do this, you can navigate to where you want in your site, and keep that browser window open all day. Letting you start and stop debugging from that point whenever you want.
Again, it isn't exactly the same, but it isn't terrible either.
Just run the Visual Studio Project and it should open the application's Index view of home controller by default!
If you are talking about IIS file viewing, in IIS go to your application -> switch to content view -> go to default.aspx -> right click -> choose browse
