Not able to install extensions anymore, now get "Item currently unavailable. Please check the troubleshooting guide." on extension page #131

Hi, Whenever I try to install or update an extension, the webstore page had a big red banner that says "Item currently unavailable. Please check the troubleshooting guide."

Any ideas?

Uninstalling the old Chromium web store extension (1.5.3) and installing the latest version (1.5.4) fixed this issue for me.

I installed 1.5.4 when it came out a couple months ago.

I'm using 1.5.4 and also get the purple box witth "Item currently unavailable. Please check the troubleshooting guide.". However, the "Add to Chromium" button is colored Blue - so not greyed out - and works as normal. This also applies to a newly created profile.

I just tried again and the "Item current unavailable" bar is still there but the blue "Add to Chromium" is there now too. That button wasn't there when I reported this.

Google is being sneaky evil and has started A/B testing their new webstore https://chromewebstore.google.com vs https://chrome.google.com/webstore , if you are unlucky and got binned into the new option, you will no longer be able to download any extensions until you update to the newest chrome. This is part of their efforts to push manifest v3 and eventually kill off manifest v2.

For now, there is a workaround to obtain the packaged CRX using the Get CRX extension https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/get-crx/dijpllakibenlejkbajahncialkbdkjc

I realize some people may struggle to even obtain that CRX, so I have extracted the resource blob directly here too (it may be temporary, I do not know if it expires) :

Dark times are ahead.

Just a quick reminder that even if the button isn't being replaced you should be able to right click anywhere on the page and select "Add to Chromium" from the context menu.

Always the first thing I check. That wasn't available at the time of reporting.

You can try 1.5.4.1 if you want more seamless integration with the new web store. This new method basically fools the store into thinking you are using a vanilla chrome browser, so functionality should be very similar to the vanilla experience.

Just want to say that I noticed a Dark Reader update was available. With 1.5.4 there was no install option, the unavailable banner was there, and the blue button was to remove DR only. I updated to 1.5.4.1, the banner disappeared, and "add to Chromium" was back in the right-click menu. Thank you for the quick update @NeverDecaf !

ghost commented 10 months ago

With 1.5.4.1 sometimes the unavailable banner is present and the install button is not blue, but a simple reload fixes ths then.

Legend, this fixed it for me. Thanks for all the work you do!
