If you are using Windows 8/7/XP systems, or your browser engine version is lower than 120, you need to manually install the legacy ScriptCat. v0.16.x is the last version that supports Manifest V2. Installation steps can be found at: Load unpacked extension installation.
Technical Background: Manifest V3
Due to browser restrictions, extensions are forced to upgrade to Manifest V3, and Manifest V2 extensions will be completely discontinued after June 2025. Under the limitations of Manifest V3, you must enable developer mode or user scripts functionality to use ScriptCat extension normally.
Reference: Developer mode for extension users, Manifest V3
For browser engine versions ≥ 138, you need to enable "Allow User Scripts". For lower versions, use "Enable Developer Mode".
