Have you signed in to Chrome or created a default profile? If not, this issue could occur.

Have you signed in to Chrome or created a default profile? If not, this issue could occur.

1. I have signed in to Chrome using my Google account.
2. Are you asking whether to create a default profile in Chrome or Raycast? If so, I am not sure how to do this.
3. The issue occurred suddenly; previously, I was able to use this extension to search bookmarks in Chrome.

2. Are you asking whether to create a default profile in Chrome or Raycast? If so, I am not sure how to do this.

Ah, by "Default" I was asking if you had created a profile without logging in at first.

Your issue appears to be a case where the Bookmarks file cannot be found.
Have you recently created or deleted any profiles?

Let's fix this step by step.

1. Navigate to /Users/{USER_NAME}/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome directory and check if there are directories named "Default", "Profile {number}"(like 1, 2, 3...)

2. We need to verify the profiles currently in use in Chrome.
   The file structure should look like this:

{
  "accessibility": ....,
  ....,
  "profile": {
   "info_cache": {
     "Default": { // <-----
       "name": "actual profile name",
       "gaia_name": "Google account name (if exists)",
       ...
     },
     "Profile 2": { // <-----
       "name": "actual profile name",
       "gaia_name": "Google account name (if exists)",
       ...
     },
     ...,,
    }
  }
}

Please check if "Profile {number}" and "Default" exist here.

3. Access the directory: /Users/{USER_NAME}/Library/Application Support/com.raycast.macos/extensions/254a620a-7fba-450b-bc17-c2e1ce6809d8/com.raycast.api.cache

4. Open the journal file.

5. Copy the {Strings} from "Chrome-profile {Strings} number"

6. Check for a file named {Strings} in com.raycast.api.cache

7. Inside, you'll find either "Default" or "Profile {number}" written. Please change this information to match the profile information ("Default", "Profile {number}") you verified in step 2. For the most reliable solution, I recommend first changing it to the profile you're currently using.
