Chrome extension MAX_WRITE not replenishing

I recently exceeded the allowed writes per hour in my chrome extension, and now I get this message when I try to use chrome.storage:

Unchecked runtime.lastError while running storage.set:
This request exceeds the MAX_WRITE_OPERATIONS_PER_HOUR quota

The problem is that this quota is not being refilled. It's been almost a full day since this error happened and it is still throwing this error. How can I top up my quota?

Note: I tried uninstalling and reloading my unpacked extension and it didn't work.

This looks like a long-standing error: MAX_WRITE_OPERATIONS_PER_HOUR error despite no writes for 24 periods .



Once the quota has been reached, the extension flag will be included in memory and never reset. Since the quota only applies in memory , restarting Chrome completely will remove the quota limit.

It seems like the bug with Chrome is the only way I could work around it, is to move the unpacked extension to a new directory and download from there, which generates a new extension ID
