Metamask Extension Bug Permissions Removing Hardware Wallet Acc Symptom Users experience an issue where removing a hardware wallet account from Metamask does not clear the associated permissions, resulting in persistent access and potential security risks. Technical Root Cause The error occurs due to a bug in the Metamask extension, where the removal of a hardware wallet account does not properly revoke the previously granted permissions, leading to an inconsistent state. Manual Overrides Attempt to manually revoke permissions using the eth_accounts and eth_requestAccounts methods. Use the Metamask API to remove the account and then restart the extension. Utilize the following JSON configuration to reset the permissions: json { "permissions": { "hardwareWallets": [] } } Consider utilizing an external console to execute these commands for a more streamlined experience. Prerequisites Metamask extension installed and configured Hardware wallet account previously added to Metamask Basic understanding of JSON configuration and Metamask API
