This extension may soon no longer be supported because it doesn't follow best practices for Chrome extensions.

Ah looks like chrome folks are really pushing for manifest v3 for real this time.

Well tonight this extension is now deactivated because "not compatible any more" on Chrome Beta (version 129.0.6668.42) that I use for local web development :confused:

leaving a note just in case it might be helpful for other who run into this issue. stop-gap solution:

  1. build extension from source
  2. load built extension by using chrome extension manager in developer mode

Just got disabled for me on my work machine too. You can re-enable it by:

  1. Open chrome://extensions
  2. In the disabled extensions list at the top click the 3 dots next to Preact DevTools, select "Keep for now"
  3. Confirm you want to keep the extension
  4. In the "Extensions" grid below, switch the toggle on
  5. Confirm again you want to keep it.

Alternatively, you can set ExtensionManifestV2Availability to 2 (i.e. via MDM or manually via ADMX/regedit on Windows)

What if you do not have it installed, and want to install it?

It's no longer available from Web Store, so only in developer mode from local file (eg built from source).

Looks like @marvinhagemeister's submission went through and the extension is installable once again.

As such, going to close this on out.
