Hey guys, I'm new here. I just got a new extension and I am unable to access it as the extensions are grayed out. I looked up some fixes but nothing is getting it to work. Has anyone run into this problem before? Is there a fix or work around to allow me to use my extensions?

Thanks Matt

Have you tried Edit>Preferences>Plugins>Legacy Extensions>Load Extension Panels

I've tried to dig in deeper but the only solution I could come up is to run the program under Rosetta. But that's Mac only with M1 processors and you're on a Windows machine like me. Also seems to be a a predominant issue when you update to 22.3 onward.

I can't find a solution and I'm reading that these extensions may be gone. I'll keep digging or possibly someone else can come up with a solution.

I had a 2-hour support call with adobe well two calls; the first guy didn't know what was going on and just cancelled the call without saying anything. The extension seemed to be grayed out because the extension I was running wasn't set upright. I also didn't have any other extensions to make the option not gray. When I unzipped the files, they didn't come all in 1 folder; I needed to name and place them in one folder to make it work.
