## Extension
(for Windows & Macs)
### Basic checks
1. Make sure you have the latest version of the extension installed. ([Click Here to check](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/return-youtube-dislike/gebbhagfogifgggkldgodflihgfeippi#:~:text=Report%20abuse-,Version,-2.0.0.3))
- If you see some responses but not in the above format (with likes and dislikes) then probably you are being rate-limited. It is done to prevent bot attacks and database vandalization. Raw IP addresses stay in RAM and hashes are stored to help prevent abuse. If many people are accessing the server from the same IP (as in the case of public/institutional Wi-Fi) then it's possible that the IP is being rate-limited. If that's the case, there's no way for us to differentiate you from a bot/attacker.
**If you see "Certificate error" and [if you are on Windows 7 (or earlier) read this](#install-certificates)**

### Install certificates
**Applies for Windows 7 (and earlier) only**
and only for [Chromium Based Browsers][1]
- [Chromium-based browsers][1] don't have their own certificate manager.
- They use Windows' certificates manager.
- Microsoft has officially dropped the support for Windows 7
You will have to install the latest certificates for that.
You can follow this guide:
[Fix error NET::ERR CERT DATE INVALID - Your connection is not private - Windows 7 - 2021](https://youtu.be/JYZLxP2Z8G4)
If you don't want to install the certificate from Google Drive
- Here is the official link to the certificate [**x1.i.lencr.org**](http://x1.i.lencr.org/).
- **You will have to close all the tabs** before downloading this certificate.
**The thumbprint of real certificate is `cabd2a79a1076a31f21d253635cb039d4329a5e8`**
**To make sure that you have installed the correct certificate, you should consider checking if the thumbprints match.** To do this you can follow this guide: [How to check a certificate's thumbprint](https://knowledge.digicert.com/solution/SO9840.html)

### Check for conflicting extensions
Some privacy and/or security-focused extensions such as ad- or script-blockers, as well as YouTube customization plugins might prevent the extension from working correctly.
Try to disable all other extensions and test whether the extension works.
If it does, find the extension(s) preventing RYD from working correctly and re-configure them in a way that'd stop them from interfering.
