Hello, I just installed the last 6.0.0 version of Gramps on a windows 11 system and while I was trying to install the addons from the [Addon manager](https://gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php/Gramps_5.2_Wiki_Manual_-_Navigation#Using_the_Addon_Manager) I’m having the “Addon registration Failed - The addon will be unavailable in your current configuration” message with every single plugin I try to update. Never had such issue with the previous versions and the 5.2.4 it’s working fine. Is there anythin i can try to fix this? ---

Edit \> [Addon Manager](https://gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php/Gramps_5.2_Wiki_Manual_-_Navigation#Using_the_Addon_Manager) \> Projects If you have a project named Gramps with the url [https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gramps-project/addons/master/gramps52](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gramps-project/addons/master/gramps52) then delete it. Create a new project named Gramps with the url [https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gramps-project/addons/master/gramps60](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gramps-project/addons/master/gramps60) This solved the issue for me. Couldn’t find any information that this is a necessary part of the upgrade, though. ---

Thank you, it worked like a charm 🙂 ---

Did you add the problematic Project URL manually in 6.0 which caused the dialog? Or was this a upgrading carryover… from addon “projects” previously used while in 5.2? 2. could you restore the 5.2 project and screen capture the dialog? ---

It was an upgrade carryover from addon projects previously used with the v. 5.2 2. Restoring the 5.2 Project it’s not giving me the dialog anymore, but it was this one: ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/gramps/original/2X/5/5139cb41139e90257b5fd40c7aca8ada93ebdacc.png) ---

Thanks for the clarification and screen capture. To have the dialog re-appear, you would probably need to uninstall at least one of the addons (via Help → Project Manager) and disable the 6.0 Project. Writing that suggests that I should try an experiment with a 6.0 project in 5.2 … hmmmm… That dialog wasn’t very edifying either: ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/gramps/original/2X/c/c2b79da0cfd468c3a7e16950f5835892eac3caa5.png) ---
