Support for older Extensions now disabled

All my older extensions are no longer working in PS 25.0.
I must have missed the message.
Is this the way forward?

I know they were going to be disabled at some point, but so many developers haven't switched to CEP that I am now going to lose a chunk of functionality.
Oh well, back to 24,

See if this response last year by @Akash Sharma  works for you:

 

Please note that Extensions are not supported for Mac computer using the M1 processor. Please try and find plugins with the same functionality or contact the extension owner to get your extensions ported to UXP to run as native on M1 devices.

 

You can still use the older extensions in emulation mode if needed. However, you would need to install the extension while running in Rosetta emulation mode on devices with Apple Silicon M1 processors. Older CEP extensions will not install when running in native.

There are few features not available on Apple Silicon. Also there are some known issues in Photoshop with the native M1 support , for details, see: Photoshop for Apple Silicon

So frustrating. There are so many extensions that are just not up-to-date for Mac Silicon.
I've changed PS 24.0.0 to run using Rosetta, and yes, of course, that works.

Hi, please contact the extensions developers and ask them an updated version of their add-ons, if UXP supports their needs.

If not, please have them post their features requests to the team that deals with UXP at: https://forums.creativeclouddeveloper.com/
