Cause

Following a recent update to the Google Chrome browser 116.0.5845.82, released 09 August 2023, this update changed the way that browsers handle storage partitioning. To prevent certain types of side-channel cross-site tracking, Chrome is partitioning storage and communications APIs in third-party contexts. This change is known to have introduced issues where users are experiencing multiple integration windows popping up and integration panels being stuck on the reconnecting to Salesforce message.
