Javascript for temporary extensions just doesn't work
Hopefully this is the appropriate place to ask. Javascript just doesn't seem to work for temporary extensions. When I couldn't get my own extension to work, I tried to follow the tutorial in "Your second extension" (link) and it also just doesn't work. HTML and CSS load just fine but it's none functional. I can't even get a simple log out to console.
I just updated to Windows 11 a few days ago. Is it possible there is some setting I changed a long time ago that is causing this behavior?

Did you try this in a new profile ? Did you check the Browser Console for relevant messages ?
You also can click the Inspect button for the temporarily loaded extension on the about:debugging page. This has a console that gathers messages from your background script and probably the Browser Action, but messages from content scripts are more likely to appear in the page's Web Console.

I hae done both of these, the browser console and the console brought up through clicking Inspect on the about:debugging page. The only thing that ever shows up is the html in the Inspect page, anything relating to js, be it console information or just information about scripts in general is entirely blank
