Description Juergen Rose 2016-04-02 10:34:00 UTC

If I select "Get more extensions" at "Extensions" tab of gnome-tweak-tool I come to the https://extensions.gnome.org/ which states "We cannot detect a running copy of GNOME on this system, so some parts of the interface may be disabled. ".
If I download manually nohotcorner-master.zip and try to add this extension with "Select an extensions" nothing happens.

How can I get rid of this most annoying behaviour of gnome-3 with the upper left corner?

After rebooting I was able to maually the nohotcorner extension.
I the terminal window where I started gnome-tweak-tool, I Can saw:

The problem with extensions.gnome.org is an upstream problem because they were relying on NPPAPI plugin system

But I don't fully understand the issue the the installation of the extension, did it finally work then? :/ It looks like it's being properly unpacked on right location ...

Excuse my typo, after rebooting I was able to install the downloaded  nohotcorner-master.zip file.
