Troubleshooting
The extension doesn't load
Make sure you've extracted the ZIP completely and selected the folder that contains manifest.json.
Music doesn't play
Check your browser's audio permissions and make sure your volume is not muted.
Can't find developer mode
In Chromium browsers it's the switch in the top-right corner of the extensions page.
Wrong version downloaded
Chromium browsers use LofiExtension.zip; Firefox installs from the add-on store.
