https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ZdlSW4S7h4 just add the argument for chrome, it will work. For me firefox issue still exists. ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions(); options.addArguments("--remote-allow-origins=*");

If you still having error, try adding argument options to ChromeDriver method.

ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
    options.addArguments("--remote-allow-origins=*");
    WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
