      So today I tried to make my own extension, which went very well! I am very proud of my work and I wanted to pack it and make my first final version.

      After packing my extension, i got this pop up saying it made 2 new files, 1 extension and 1 key. The tutorial I watched had these files just in his downloads folder, but I don't have them there- I tried to search my entire computer for these files but i don't even know the file names to be honest.

      Does anyone know where these files are stored? I cant pack this extension again because I need the key, which I can't find! I'm stuck in a loop and the only thing that can get me out of it is finding these files 😞

            @teagow right, but you don't create it in Opera, right? An extension is basically a script that you write in the proper tools for that and, then, save/compile it so the extension can be used by the browsers.

            So those new files should probably be in the same directory of the other files. At least it would be my first guess and what would make more sense.
