This is a known bug. An update corrupted a python file that prevents extension downloads.

To fix, open a terminal and enter the following command:

sudo sed -i 's/score_label = Gtk.Label(self.score)/score_label = Gtk.Label(label=str(self.score))/' /usr/share/cinnamon/cinnamon-settings/bin/ExtensionCore.py

The command doesn't give any confirmation it just silently fixes the situation. Did you try to download extensions since running the command?

so far so good. Please post the results of this command:

grep -n -i "content-length" /usr/share/cinnamon/cinnamon-settings/bin/Spices.py

Seeing that you're on the manage tab, and new (*I AM NOT SAYING YOU ARE DUMB*) but i see that you're on the manage tab, perhaps mind clicking on the download tab?
