What's Wrong?
Clicking "Open Extensions Folder" button returns an error dialog with message
"C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Claude\Claude Extensions" is unavailable....
Similar error dialog shows up when "Open Extension Settings Folder" is clicked
What Should Happen?
I see a folder "Claude Extensions" in the follwoing path
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Packages\Claude_pzs8sxrjxfjjc\LocalCache\Roaming\Claude
With the new build being installed on a different path now, the buttons should point to the new path
