 chrome.tabs.query({active:true, windowType : "normal", currentWindow: true} , function(tabs) {
        console.log("on click", tabs[0])
        const windowId = tabs[0].windowId;
            chrome.tabs.captureVisibleTab(
                windowId, {
                    "format":"jpeg",
                    "quality": 100,
                },
            ).then(dataUrl => {
