Your browser does not run web extensions like Vimium on certain pages, usually for security reasons. Unless your browser's developers change their policy, then unfortunately it is not possible to make Vimium (or any other web extension, for that matter) work on this page

Chrome doesn't allow Vimium to run on URLs of chrome://, https://chrome.google.com/* and about:*.

Same message in vimium encountered rn on https://linux.die.net/man/1/ed ... no idea why but reloading the page fixed it.

Maybe you recently installed the extension and those pages were already open and the extension couldn't inject any javascript magic that it does when a page loads. That was the issue in my case. That's why reloading fixes the issue.

This happened to me on site "stackoverflow". A reload fixes it.
