## 🛠️ Not working?

**Try these steps** if websites aren’t blocked on Zen Browser. If they don’t work, contact us for help.

* Quit and reopen Zen Browser.
* In Zen Browser, go to `about:addons`. From the side panel, click ${color}[#0061ff](**Extensions**) and select ${color}[#0061ff](**Jomo Companion**) from the list. Verify that all permissions are granted for Jomo.
* Verify that a file named `com.jomo.Jomo.json` is present in `/Users/{your_user_name}/Library/Application Support/Mozilla/NativeMessagingHosts/`. It is very important that the file is located in the `NativeMessagingHosts` folder. If this folder does not exist, create it manually and copy the file there. 
* Even if you want to block websites on Zen, the manifest file should be placed under `Mozilla/NativeMessagingHosts`.
* Ensure you are using the latest version of Jomo for Mac, available on the Mac App Store.
* Restart your Mac.
