Mac OS 12.7.6 Zotero connector for safari 17.6 flickers and disappears

My system details: MacBook Air (2017), macOS 12.7.6 (the highest version for my Mac), safari 17.6, Zotero 10.0.7

I have successfully installed the latest Zotero. However, when I try to use the Zotero Connector extension in Safari, the extension icon in the toolbar flickers continuously and disappears. It does not stay visible, so I cannot click it to save references.

I have tried completely deleting and reinstalling Zotero, compress and uncompress Zotero, force Extension reloading, but the problem remains unsolved.

What can I do to solve this problem? Or maybe I should install Zotero 7 or what? Will it help?

    Were you using Zotero previously? This just sounds like the usual macOS bug after app updates.

    Delete Zotero from Applications, restart your computer, and reinstall. If that doesn't help, you'll need to use a different browser or switch a newer Mac that can run later versions of macOS, Safari, and the Zotero Connector. Current versions should auto-repair after this this macOS bug occurs.
