Fireworks and Extension Manager CS6 Issues - Missing CSS Properties Panel

i have a number of issues with Adobe Fireworks CS6:

The CSS Properties Panel will not launch

The Kuler Extension will not launch either but I manager to fix by downloading the Kuler extension and reinstalling

I'm assuming there will be other related issues, when I launch the CS6 Extension Manager I get  an error message as illustrated below:

Is this a permissions issue or something? I need the CSS Properties Panel Back - If someone can provide a link to download the last version of the standalone CSS Properties Panel extension then I can install it and probably fix this issue, Otherwise can somebody from Adobe take a look at this please ASAP.

    Here is a registry hack to get the disabled panels working in Fireworks CS6 :

    Navigate to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\CSXS.3

    Create a string value with name "PlayerDebugMode" and value: 1

    Restart Fireworks if it was already open.

      Probably should have mentioned I an on Windows 10 (64bit). I notice a few other people have had the same issue but can't see a fix/resolution.

      The issue appears to be that all extensions bundled with Fireworks CS6 have been signed with the same certificate which has expired

      ADOBE PLEASE FIX THIS ITS NOT DIFFICULT - A NEW SIGNED CERTIFICATE FOR THE EXTENSIONS BUNDLED WITH FIREWORKS IS NOT DIFFICULT SURELY??????

      MODS PLEASE REFER TO THIS SOMEBODY AT ADOBE WHO CAN ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

      Temp workaround and hardly ideal at all

      1) Launch Fireworks

      2) Turn your system clock back a few years

      3) Launch the CSS Properties Panel

      BTW XD is NOT a viable replacement for Fireworks, its not even close.
