The code to demonstrate your question

1. Clone Rod to your local and cd to the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/go-rod/rod
   cd rod

2. Use your code to replace the content of function TestRod in file rod_test.go.

3. Test your code with: go test -run TestRod, make sure it fails as expected.

4. Replace ALL THE CONTENT under "The code to demonstrate your question" with your TestRod function, like below:

const EDGE_BINARY_PATH = "C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft/Edge/Application/msedge.exe"

func main() {
	l := launcher.New().Bin(EDGE_BINARY_PATH).Headless(true)
	lUrl := l.MustLaunch()
	browser := rod.New().ControlURL(lUrl).Trace(true).MustConnect()
	page := browser.MustPage("https://github.com/go-rod/rod")
	defer func() {
		page.Close()
		page.Browser().Close()
		l.Cleanup()
	}()
	time.Sleep(10 * time.Second)
}

Did a white box pop up? I encountered this issue as well, but it only happens on Windows.

yes

Disable leakless might help.

Disable leakless might help.

In fact, I've always had leakless disabled, yet the issue still persists. However, it only occurs on Windows systems, and there are no such issues on other systems.

To be precise, it's not an issue with the parameter itself because I do need to display the terminal. However, when I start a headless browser via Rod, a white, blank window appears. After completing the task and closing the browser, the window disappears. This issue only started recently, and I suspect it's likely due to another update from Chrome that caused this.

I encountered almost the same problem.
