Sorry for a possibly silly question - I just downloaded and installed the latest 4.13 version for Windows (R30577) and it seems that none of the extensions is currently available for that platform. Did I just happen to grab that version too early and these are still in the process of being built?

You can see the status of the build in real-time [here](https://slicer.cdash.org/index.php?project=SlicerPreview) (you can go to the previous days, too).

Which extension was that you did not find?

Thanks for the clarification Andras,

I could not find a single extension. All of the extensions I had installed with my previous slicer version appeared greyed out in the extension manager, and the number of available extensions appeared as 0.

That seemed rather strange so I then had a look at the following site:

[https://slicer-packages.kitware.com/#collection/5f4474d0e1d8c75dfc70547e/folder/61fb6e31342a877cb3096f97](https://slicer-packages.kitware.com/#collection/5f4474d0e1d8c75dfc70547e/folder/61fb6e31342a877cb3096f97)

from which I got the impression that not a single windows extension seemed to be available.

Today’s nightly extension builds are partially complete (see the status [here](https://slicer.cdash.org/index.php?project=SlicerPreview), a good number of extensions are already available. You can either wait a few more hours or use yesterday’s Slicer Preview Release - see details [here](https://slicer.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user_guide/extensions_manager.html#extensions-manager-does-not-show-any-extensions).

Ok, understood – I did not realise that the mosr recent application was available already while the extensions were still being built. I know where to check for these being ready now, and can certainly wait a bit.

I agree, this is not intuitive. We plan to change this, see details here:

> <https://github.com/Slicer/Slicer/issues/4976>
>
> In certain timezones (most of Europe) there is a high chance that people don’t f…ind any extensions for the release they have just downloaded.
> 
> It should be possible to somehow synchronize the time the new Slicer Preview Release package shows up on the download page - with the time when extension builds are complete.
> 
> Maybe it could be as simple as having an embargo period between 10pm EST and 12pm EST: packages that are uploaded during this time would all show up at the end of the period (at 12pm EST).
