I went to Resource Manager and tried to install the extension "Musescore General HQ". Halfway through downloading it says "Unable to download, save and verify the package. Check your internet connection." My internet wi-fi is running fine. The version of the extension is 1.2.0. I was able to download the Drumline extension just fine.

Indeed, there is known issue where the timeout is too shot, you'd need a very fast connection for it to work. Instead, download it directly from http://extensions.musescore.org/3.5/extensions and then drag & drop it onto the MuseScore window.

It didn't work when I clicked on the link. It showed the attached image.

I'm not computer-smart, but do I put the file here? Or in the SoundFont section where there is nothing. I have tried switching between both and still have the same issue.
As written above, drag and drop the .muxt file onto the MuseScore window
