"Extensions" should appear in the tool, but this function is simply not there. I would like to add the Dash to Dock but https://extensions.gnome.org/ does not find the shell installing even though the chrome and Firefox extensions are installed.

          From the screenshot it seems you have logged in to a Unity session, not a GNOME session. GNOME extension like 'Dash to Dock' is not supposed to work in Unity.



          There should be a cogwheel (⚙️) next to the "sign in" button at the GDM login screen. Click on it and select GNOME instead of Unity (provided you actually have GNOME installed).

            You don't need to install extensions from extensions.gnome.org as they are also available in Ubuntu Software app.



            Run Ubuntu Software, click add-ons, click extensions tab. Here you are able to install extensions.
