Sometimes the extension does not work properly or at all, 'cause the browser already consumes/eats too much Random-Access Memory. This consumtion can stop many things from working properly on your system, including your system. And this kind of high consuption can also damage your primary disks (the one the system is installed on) and everything else. Yes, all this damage's source can be reduced to just high browser's consuption of your P. C.'s resources. It only deepens the damage(s). So, try to keep it low on tabs or just get a higher R.-A. M..

It worked in Firefox but I had the same problem in Chrome. I opened Chrome->About Google Chrome and it automatically updated Chrome to Version 134.0.6998.166. After re-launching, it worked perfectly.

NB:

Follow instructions at Install manually to remove the install restriction of Chrome with extensions which are not from Chrome WebStore. Very important.
