The root cause is that Chrome open its Cookie file in the exclusive mode (set dwShareMode to 0 in CreateFileW), so Windows prevents any process to access the file again.

This problem is specific to Windows and cannot be addressed directly by leetgo.

But I have a workaround. I log into LeetCode using an alertnate browser such as Edge, but I mainly use Chrome, so when I use leetgo, it can read cookies from Edge since it is not running.
