Extension opens in new tab
hello. I'm Japanese and I don't understand English i am using google translate Please understand that there may be mistakes. I'm using firefox developer. Click on the extension icon on the toolbar Even though the extension is enabled and not pinned The add-on manager will open. Support says the panel will open if the extension is enabled and not pinned to the toolbar. But it doesn't show up and the addon manager opens. Please tell me the solution. I cannot use the extension.

Okay, but please allow them to run in private windows just to rule out that issue.

Are you browsing in a private window? Make sure to allow the extensions to run in private windows: Extensions in Private Browsing.
Note that the Troubleshooting Information shows that those two extensions are disabled.
You can try "Clear the startup cache..." via the "Help -> More Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page.
You can check for problems with the extensions registry files in the profile folder.
Try to reset the extensions registry and rename extensions.json (extensionsOLD.json) and rename/remove compatibility.ini in the Firefox profile folder with Firefox closed.
New files will be created when required.
See "corrupt extension files":
You can check for possible updates in case of issues.
- click the cogwheel (left of the Search bar) on the about:addons page to "Check for updates"
You can use the button on the "Help -> More Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page (Root directory).

Thank you very much for your detailed information. I'm sorry, but there is no problem with the extension itself, I can't see the extension panel. I also checked regedit. I tried everything but it doesn't work. Can't you see the panel? It's the latest version of firefox developer.
I have an additional question, displayed when the extension is installed. Extensions can be found in the application menu You're not talking about the addon manager, are you? Description: Please tell me how to use it, as long as I can use the extended function. If possible, how to not show the add-on manager

Every window is a private window if you enabled "Never remember history" or "Always use private browsing mode" (browser.privatebrowsing.autostart set to true in about:config).
