How to fix chrome.runtime.sendMessage on extension update?

Question

JavaScript

The function inside the script content starts to return an error when used.
Error:
Uncaught Error: Extension context invalidated.
It is possible to wrap it in a try, but the function remains broken, although the updated extension works fine and is ready to receive messages. Reloading the page is not a pretty solution (the user can type text on the site that will be lost).

Answer 1

It is necessary to unsubscribe from all events and call.
chrome.runtime.reload()
It is convenient to share via Port, It has an onDisconnected event, and that's where you can call reload ()
