    Be sure to open the right folder extension : it varies along the OS you use. To always get the right extension folder, go to inkscape preferences > system, as shown on screenshot.

    Second, sometimes it may not be that easy to understand where your extension as gone in extensions menu. Open the .inx file of the extension with a text editorย  : here the extension is named "Cut and remove by shape" will will be found in a submenu called "Pen Plotter Tools"

    ย 

    <name>Cut and remove by shape</name>

    [...]

    <effect>
    ย ย ย  <effects-menu>
    ย ย ย ย ย  <submenu name="Pen Plotter Tools"/>
    ย ย ย  </effects-menu>
    ย  </effect>
