Extensions not working in beta

Post by fathermocker »

Hey!

I'm having trouble with the last beta version. Trying to install extensions, and having enabled them (using --enable-extensions) I always get this message, no matter what extension I'm trying to install: "Could not install extension from 'C:\xxxxxx'. bad version number". Is there any way to fix this and make extensions actually work?

Thanks in advance!

Extensions need signing in newer builds of Iron (and Chrome also) because of security reasons.

I see. Is there any way to make the extensions work then? Should I repackage them myself?
Also, is there a way to use the Chrome Channel Switcher with Iron?
Thanks in advance!

Sorry for the double post, but I can't edit my previous one.

I've been researching the last few hours, and I realized I can't even install extensions that are meant to work in Chrome 3.0.189.0, and actually work in Google Chrome 3.0.189.0, such as this one or this one.

What's wrong?
Is there any extension that works with Iron 3.0.189.0?
