Can't enable Legacy Extensions macOS

I will attach a photo of the problem. Extensions doesn't even appear when I go to my windows and no matter how many times I reset all my settings in photoshop, I cannot get the extensions to appear. 

 

I have the newest MacBook Air

    I figured it out. I installed the Rosetta 2 app and that fixed everything with legacy extensions.

    You added to a 3-year-old thread about legacy extensions on macOS.

     

    For assistance, please start a new thread (Photoshop forum, then the Blue "Post" button). Include your versions of PS and Windows, plus the legacy extensions you are trying to install.

    You need to enable Rosetta on the M1 macs by enabling it associated with the info view associated with photoshop.  This video covers it but there is probably a performance hit.

        Hi @Lisa5C07 

        The forums are glitchy when trying to look at attached images and I couldn't see yours. You can insert it in a reply window with the Insert Image button (mountain and sun).

         

        Here's how to enable extensions on your Mac:
