I tried this code for photoshop CC and CC 2014, it works for both but I couldn't get it to run for cs6 it gives the below error from the extension manager:

extension builder error

so isn't Version="[13.0,15.9]" correct? why would it not work for cs6? thanks in advance.

Hi,

CS6 doesn't support HTML Panels but Flash ones, this should be the why the Adobe Extension Manager fails.

You might find help here (Flash): Creative Suite Extension Builder and here (HTML): Extension Builder 3
