I got the notice about legacy extensions no longer being supported. What am I supposed to do about it?

If your Mac is running macOS Catalina now, this warning, is just that -- a warning. It is informing you that some current extension that have been installed on your Mac will, most likely, not be compatible with future macOS upgrades. What you need to do about it, are the following:

  1. Figure out which ones are being identified.
  2. Figure out what they do and what app or hardware they support.
  3. Contact the extension developer to see if they will be providing an update if you plan to continue using said app or hardware.
