I forgot to screenshot it but in Chromium's collect errors I saw an orange warning saying "Cannot load extension with file or directory name _metadata. Filename...". I think the underscore in _metadata is what its complaining about.

That folder is added by the Chrome store.

Oh sorry. Another question not related to this is when I went looking for the uBlock extension folder, I see there is a folder for all the previous versions of uBlock.

ubdir

Inside them they all only have the assests folder remaining.

ubassets

Is there a reason why these folders remain on my computer taking up 120mb. Is it a Windows or Chrome problem?

Is it a Windows or Chrome problem?

No clue. I don't use Windows, neither Chrome. I suspect you can all remove the old versions, I don't know why they are not removed. Probably something to report to Chrome. I don't know if Chromium suffers the same problem, but in any case from a user's point of view, the Chrome store is failing there.
