Had package installed:

sudo /home/xxxx/native-c/install.sh
[sudo] xxxx password：
/usr/bin/node
NodeJS status = 0
Installer is using your system NodeJS.

But when using Chrome, the One Last Step connection check always fail

In addition my same extension config on Windows, MAcOS are fine

for starters you should'av installed without invoking sudo

paths at: /root/.config/

Note: As of version 1.0.0, this extension uses https://github.com/fent/node-ytdl-core as its detection core.

mind you, i've been having the same issue anyways.
i'm on Lubuntu 22.04, the only difference i can readily point to, from previous installs , is the current /snap/bin/firefox path, but there's no way to edit it in setting tab; about:addons - though it shouldn't be the issue since 'which' has no trouble finding ff

node16.7.1
FF 105.0.1

i ran the ./uninstall.sh script and installed ytdl-core instead
npm install ytdl-core@latest

it now works, but the settings tab still shows missing client path
-On youtube, the download arrow icon shows up and works

https://github.com/andy-portmen/native-client * install the original instead
