so the .crx file will download over and over with each attempt to open, drag and drop, etc. and the error message is displayed each time.
OK, I tried to it and solved the problem of v 67.
In the Extension configure page, You would activate the “developer mode” and drag and drop .crx file. I think that installation of extension will succeed.
