New tab extension breaking Dashboard

[SallyK]

I don't know if anything can be done about this, or if I'll just have to live with it, but I use an extension for my new tab/home page

I'd like to try the new Dashboard feature, but even though someone very kindly told me how to set up a hot key to load it, if I'm using the extension, it doesn't work - all I get is the background image, with no widgets, or even the menu at the top that enables me to switch to a Speed Dial etc.

Is this a bug, is this normal if you are using an extension on new tabs, or is there anything I can do about it, other than giving up the extension?

Thank you for any help you can give me with this.

@SallyK its replacing your start page so uninstall the extension and it should work

@mikeyb2001 Yes, it does work without the extension - I guess I was wanting to have my cake and eat it.
