To inspect a pop-up window in Chrome, right-click inside the pop-up and select Inspect. If the pop-up is a separate window, ensure it's selected then use Ctrl+Shift+I (Windows) or Cmd+Opt+I (Mac) to open the Developer Tools. Sometimes, pop-ups may close too quickly to inspect manually. In such cases, temporarily disable pop-up blocking in Chrome settings under Privacy and security > Site Settings > Pop-ups and redirects, allowing you to open and inspect the pop-up without interruption.
