Well ... the Error kind of says it all. You cannot close a window that you didn't open yourself. – Jens Habegger Jul 23 '18 at 13:03

usecase is upon clicking a button from UI current browser window should be closed. I tried $window.close() and self.close() options which are working fine in IE but not working in chrome – Amit Jul 30 '18 at 06:52
