Description
Code snippet below causes error in my Google Chrome:
import plotly.graph_objects as go
from plotly.subplots import make_subplots
import plotly.io as pio
fig = make_subplots(specs=[[{"secondary_y": True}]])
fig.add_trace( go.Scatter(x=[1,2,3],y=[4,5,6]), row=1, col=1 )
fig.show()
Google Chrome displays the error below. Edge Firefox, IE all work correctly when they are set to the default browser.
Aw, Snap!
Something went wrong while displaying this webpage
Error code: STATUS_BAD_IMPERSONATION_LEVEL
Google Chrome 89.0.4389.72 (64bit)
PyCharm 2020.3.3
Python 3.9
Plotly 4.14.3
Windows 10 Enterprise 10.0.19041 64bit
This only occurs when Google Chrome is not running. If Google Chrome is running, the plots work as expected.
Does anyone know the cause or have a workaround for this?
Thanks!

Research direction
Start by reproducing the provided plotly.graph_objects and make_subplots snippet on Windows with Chrome initially closed, using the listed Plotly and Python versions. Inspect the fig.show() execution path and compare it with behavior when Chrome is already running. Done means the STATUS_BAD_IMPERSONATION_LEVEL failure is resolved or a documented workaround is added.
