Question

Where can I find and reinstall missing extensions?

Core extensions are suddenly missing from my installation of Fireworks CS6. When I open Adobe Extensions Manager CS6, I get an error stating a lot of extensions failed to be imported.

 

  • Add Arrowheads.zxp
  • Add Picture Frame.zxp
  • Add Shadow.zxp
  • Align Panel.zxp
  • ALT Text Commands.zxp
  • Covert Color Commands.zxp
  • Create Shared Palette.zxp
  • Data-Driven Graphics Wizard.zxp
  • Layers Commands.zxp
  • Reset Warning Dialogs.zxp

 

My Align panel is blank in the program, which makes sense because it is listed above as missing. Does anyone know where I can find, download, and install missing core plugins for Fireworks?

    This registry fix for Fireworks may help with some disabled panels/extensions for Windows users.

    Here's a zip file of all commands + a load of third party commands plus one or two I created myself:  .... I'm not sure if this if this 100% cross platform.

    On windows, navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Fireworks CS6\Configuration folder and make a backup  or rename your commands folder, then copy  this new commands folder ..... Give it a go, it may work,  nothing ventured, nothing gained. Simiar process for Mac users, although I'm less confident it will work

    This is not going to sound helpful at all, but after a recent update to Photoshop and other applications, Fireworks just started working again correctly. *shrugs* I wish I could say I did anything specific. Oddly, the Adobe updater still shows Fireworks needs an update but the update fails everytime.

    If the provided fixes don't help I can zip up my commands and command panels folders and provide a download link, you can try copying them to path on widnows C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Fireworks CS6\Configuration\

    Are you on windows? Firstly here's a Windows registry fix for some panels unzip, click on the reg file and confirm add to registry. I would also try running the CS6 extension manager as an administrator and try running Fireworks as an administrator too.

    I'm on a Mac. I'm not familiar with running as an 'Admin' so I'll look into this. Thank you.

    In that case, I'm not sure I can helpo you and once you eventually move to Caalina you won't be able to use Fireworks anyway
