Troubleshooting
If your Grayscale extension is giving you a hard time, you may need to uninstall (or remove) it and reinstall it.
Google Chrome
Click the three dots in the upper-right corner of your browser
Go to Extensions
Click on Manage Extensions
Locate the Grayscale extension and click the Remove button
Open a new browser tab, paste the following url into it, and press Enter on your keyboard
Click the Add to Chrome button
Note: We recommend copying and pasting the URL instead of clicking the link, just in case this browser is not set as your default browser.
Microsoft Edge
Click the three dots in the upper-right corner of your browser
Go to Extensions
Click on Manage Extensions
Locate the Grayscale extension and click the Remove link
Open a new browser tab, paste this URL: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/grayscale-conversational/fpnnaflhohmjmjdmicfnppcdkikgpabj and press Enter on your keyboard
This will reinstall the extension, but you'll need to do one last thing to get the icon back in your extension tray at the top of the browser. Click the puzzle icon in the extension tray at the top of the browser, then click the eye icon next to Grayscale
Note: It's better to copy and paste the url instead of clicking the link, just in case this browser is not set as your default browser.
