"Failed to launch the browser process!" (Update: figured it out) about chatgpt-chrome-extension

And to further explain the issue, I am seeing the "Ask ChatGPT" option when I right click in text boxes, but this is the pop-up error I get when I click it:

"Error. Make sure you're running the server by following the instructions on https://github.com/gragland/chatgpt-chrome-extension. Also make sure you don't have an adblocker preventing requests to localhost:3000"

So it's clear that for some reason, I'm not being able to get the server running

I finally figured out the problem!

When you run server.js, it attempts to open Chrome using the address C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe, when the proper address (on my PC at least) should be C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe.

There are two ways to resolve this, but rather than finding the file that contains the line of code you need to change to direct it to the right Program Files folder, the simplest is simply to copy the Google folder from Program Files (x86) and paste it in Program Files. Once I did this, everything worked perfectly.
