Dear @jazz-y

I found problem in host.jsx file. When i remove this part related to a user validation, extension works perfectly, but it still bothers me what's wrong with this code. It works in all versions on PS on MAC and on previous versions of PS on WIN10, but something went wrong in PS 23.0.2 on WIN10. Do you have an idea regarding this issue?

////// DATE
var GivenDate = new Date('31/12/2022');
var CurrentDate = new Date();
////// USER
var users = ['emp1','emp2','emp3'];  
function isMacOS() {
  return ($.os.toLowerCase().indexOf('mac') >= 0);
}
function getUserName() {
  return (isMacOS()) ? $.getenv("USER") : $.getenv("USERNAME");
}
var userName = getUserName();
var uservalidation;
for (var i = 0; i < users.length; i++) {
    if (users[i] === userName) {
        uservalidation = userName;
        break;
    }
}
if(GivenDate > CurrentDate){
    if (uservalidation.value=true) {
// DO SOMETHING
    }
    else{
        alert("Your are not licenced to use this extension!")
    }
}
else{
    alert("Your licence has expired!")
}

I solved this issue. Usernames on WIN10 are written with capital letters 😞 for example on MAC was employee1, and on WIN10 EMPLOYEE1

Sorry for interruption.

Not me, I rarely use ScriptUI, let alone get into panels/extensions etc.

What type of extension? Extend Script, CEP, UXP?

If you provide a link to it, we can confirm or deny the problem.

We do not know how the extension works and how the interface management logic is implemented, so it is unlikely that anyone can help without the source code.

Does your extension use access to file system objects? Most of the differences between Windows and MacOS that I know of are related to the difference in paths. If your button activity depends on the presence of one or another file in a given path, make sure that you do not use paths in the format of your file system, but use a URI or a file object.

Its CEP extension.
On MAC it works correct, on WIN10 succesfuly instaled but buttons are inactive.
Both computers have same version of PS 23.0.2
PlayerDebugMode is set

Its simply folder structure. I amexplorer in this area, so i dont have to much experience.

I will share manifest.xml file and index.html, i cant share whole extension because of sensitive information about my company.
