I am encountering an issue with the function window.URL.createObjectURL(blob) being undefined in my

The issue I'm encountering is specific to my application, regardless of the browser (IE & Chrome). If I execute window.URL.createObjectURL(blob) in the console of any other page on both browsers, it works perfectly. However, within the tab where my application is open, window.URL.createObjectURL(blob) returns undefined.

I am uncertain about which library might be removing the "createObjectURL" method.

Below are the scripts included:

<script src="src/js/libs/jquery/dist/jquery.js"></script>
<script src="src/js/libs/toastr/toastr.js"></script>
<script src="src/js/libs/moment/moment.js"></script>
<script src="src/js/libs/bootstrap/dist/js/bootstrap.js"></script>
<script src="src/js/libs/angular/angular.js"></script>
<script src="src/js/libs/angular-route/angular-route.js"></script>
<script src="src/js/libs/angular-sanitize/angular-sanitize.js></script>
<script src="src/js/libs/angular-animate/angular-animate.js"></script>
<script src="src/js/libs/angular-mocks/angular-mocks.js"></script>
<script src="src/js/libs/angular-bootstrap/ui-bootstrap-tpls.js"></script>

I'm struggling to find out how to access window.URL.createObjectURL

Here is the error message from IE console:

Error: [IGL] Object doesn't support property or method 'createObjectURL' TypeError: Object doesn't support property or method 'createObjectURL'

And here is the error from Chrome:

Error: [IGL] window.URL.createObjectURL is not a function TypeError: window.URL.createObjectURL is not a function

Thank you in advance for any assistance.

I managed to find the solution to this issue by utilizing a script provided in Arun and Phil's comments. A big thank you to both of them for their assistance.

Interestingly, the problem was not related to any external library. I discovered that within my application, there was some unused code that included a global URL object overriding the window.URL.

This discovery was made using the following piece of code:

(function () {
        var _createObjectURL = window.URL.createObjectURL;
                Object.defineProperty(window.URL, 'createObjectURL', {
                set: function (value) {
                console.trace('set createObjectURL')
                        _createObjectURL = value;
                },
                        get: function () {
                        console.trace('get createObjectURL')
                                return _createObjectURL;
                        }
                })
                })();
                (function () {
                var _URL = window.URL;
                        Object.defineProperty(window, 'URL', {
                        set: function (value) {
                        console.trace('set URL')
                                _URL = value;
                        },
                                get: function () {
                                console.trace('get URL')
                                        return _URL;
                                }
                        })
                        })();
