WebStorm Debugging problem - Use JsonReader.setLenient(true) to accept malformed JSON at line 1 column 1 path $
Version: WebStorm 2017.1.4
When clicking debug I get an error message saying:
"Use JsonReader.setLenient(true) to accept malformed JSON at line 1 column 1 path $".
No Web Page is opened, nothing seems to be starting, literally nothing but the error message popping up is happening.
Below is my Run/Debug configuration:

When clicking Debug with this configuration this error message pops up:
My solution has one single HTML file in it, completely free of anything by HTML. I cleaned up all the JavaScript to check if it would start up without anything but a bare bone HTML Page. This led me to think this is an installation problem, so I've tried to reinstall both WebStorm AND the Chrome Extension for WebStorm debugging.. ..to no avail.
Anyone with any idea of what might be up with this? Is my Configuration ok?

do you have any particular reason for using Chromium Remote run configuration? This is a specific configuration intended to be used for CEF3 (Chromium Embedded Framework) debugging (can also be used for attaching to Node 7+ applications run in debugger). It's not intended to be used for debugging HTML/JS in browser. Please use
JavaScript Debugconfiguration instead. Just right-click your .html and choose Debugsee also https://www.jetbrains.com/help/webstorm/2017.1/debugging-javascript-in-chrome.html
