I am unable to open the Javascript console in a PC running Windows 10 using chrome Browser.

I get the following error message after pressing Control+Shift+J.

I get this error message:  
Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 (Request  
Blocked)

If the console isn’t opened as you state, where does that error message display at? 😕

Try right clicking, select inspect element, and go to the console tab. You can also press Control+Shift+I and select the console tab.
