Hi Sian_Ayres​

My ElasticHead extension got disabled and now am unable to add it back due to this error: Error message: Cannot install extension because it uses an unsupported manifest version. Could not load manifest.

I have tried using the troubleshooting steps as you have mentioned, however, inside the chrome://flags/#extension-manifest-v2-deprecation-warning I am unable to find the mentioned flags:

  • Extension Manifest V2 Deprecation Warning Stage
  • Extension Manifest V2 Deprecation Disabled Stage
  • Extension Manifest V2 Deprecation Unsupported Stage
  •  Allow legacy extension manifest versions


I have attached the screenshot of the same.
