callback Nw.Win.open return null

See original GitHub issue

Hi,

When I do nw.Window.open with an external URL like below, the callback parameter is “undefined” but Window opens.

nw.Window.open('https://github.com', {}, function(new_win) {
   //new_win => undefined
});

Is that normal ?

I use NWJS v14.2 with Windows 7

Thank you in advance for your help

I see. It’s easy to reproduce with devtools opening. Previously I was testing it with an automated case. Will fix it today. Thanks.
