UFT detects chrome as winobj after UFT opens the browser

UFT launches Chrome but it detects it as winobject. If I open it manually it sees chrome as browser. How can I fix this?
Validate the chrome extension is enabled.
Go to: chrome://extensions/
Validate it's enabled:
Sometimes the extension is installed but is not enabled by default.
If that doesn't work can you confirm how you're launching chrome with UFT?
A solid way is: systemutil.run "chrome", url'

PhpStorm looks for Google Chrome when I set up Firefox

PhpStorm 2021.2.2 on Ubuntu 20.04. I set up a Run Configuration as follow:
But when I launch this Run Configuration I get:
I don't understand why it look for Google Chrome if I selected Firefox as a browser.
Sadly that is correct / no error here.
JavaScript debug is done with Chrome-based browsers only (has been like that for quite some time now).
https://www.jetbrains.com/help/phpstorm/2021.2/run-debug-configuration-javascript-debug.html
https://www.jetbrains.com/help/phpstorm/2021.2/debugging-javascript-in-chrome.html
Debugging of JavaScript code is only supported in Google Chrome and in other Chromium-based browsers.
To debug JavaScript using Firefox you need to use Firefox Remote type of Run/Debug Configuration (need to manually create and use it) and enable Remote Debugging in Firefox in advance. https://www.jetbrains.com/help/phpstorm/2021.1/debugging-javascript-in-firefox.html has all the info.
A ticket to watch after: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-14987
NOTE: the aforementioned Firefox Remote type of Run/Debug Configuration is no longer present in current 2021.2 version. The last version that has it is 2021.1.
In addition to the above, from https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360010846880/comments/360003174860
Unfortunately, there's nothing we can offer for debugging in Firefox now :(
We used to support Firefox Remote Debugging (but without source maps) through the Firefox Remote run configuration, but our solution doesn't work in the latest Firefox versions due to changes in the protocol, and there doesn't seem to be an easy way to fix it. We've made some progress recently, but there are still some blocking issues.

is there no more new chrome extension are allowed to publish for chrome browser?

I am a bit confused... I was reading the tutorial for developing chrome extensions. But once I reach the step where to release it, I saw the developer console this message.
Does it means that my chrome extension will no longer available for chrome browser on any other OS than Chrome OS?
Chrome Apps are not Chrome extensions. The change in policy applies to Chrome Apps, not Chrome Extensions.
Your Chrome extension will be available for users of Google Chrome on all OS platforms where Chrome supports extensions (i.e. not on Android).

How to launch Chrome Advanced REST Client

There's this great REST client "extension" for Chrome, but the only way I can find to launch it is to go to the Chrome webstore!
It's listed as Enabled in my Chrome extensions. Is there any local way to launch it?
Chrome's Apps page should have the launch icon for Advanced REST client now that it's been installed.
URL: chrome://apps/
From Chrome Web Store Help:
The Chrome App Launcher is no longer available on Windows, Mac or Linux. You can still open your Chrome Apps at chrome://apps.
Visit that URL. Click the icon for the app.
Press "Details" on the Extensions page and create a shortcut
