You need to filter window Types
Doc link method-getLastFocused

chrome.windows.getLastFocused({ windowTypes: ["normal"] }, (win) => console.log(win));

This is not what the question is about. – wOxxOm Feb 14 '23 at 20:26
OP want to access info about active normal window – Anil kumar Feb 14 '23 at 20:29
The question is about JS `window` object, not `chrome.windows` API object. – wOxxOm Feb 14 '23 at 20:30
@Anilkumar - I agree with you. The question asks how to "get window of current tab". And you have correctly shown how to do that when the popup is open. – Yogi Feb 14 '23 at 23:52
