Greetings @Raczeran,

Issue #195 has the exact same problem as issue #204.

Even I am experiencing the same issue, so this problem might occur because the mod might be corrupted, it can be warped, it can contain a bug, or the browser is not responding properly.

Here are some good methods to follow if you encounter these problems:

---

• Check the manifest file:

  Verify the file name and ensure the manifest file is named correctly. It should be named manifest.json and located in the root directory of your mod folder.

• Confirm its presence:

  Double-check that the manifest file actually exists in the correct location.

• Check the encoding:

  Sometimes, the encoding of the manifest file might be incorrect, causing Opera GX to fail to read it. So, to avoid that, open the file in a text editor that supports different encodings, and we recommend using Notepad++, and try saving it in UTF-8 encoding format for ease of access.

• Inspect the contents:

  Open the manifest file with a text editor and ensure it's properly formatted in JSON format. You can find examples of valid manifest files online for reference.
