Having installed today the extension bundle KO_macros (me-written and available from Kirill's SPSS Macros Page) on SPSS 29.0.1.0 I've found that the menu names were corrupted. On versions 26 and 28, where I installed the same extension too earlier, there was no this filth. Please see the screenshot.

The defect names on vers. 29 contain "!" and "_id!" around the names of menu folders created by the extension.

What should I do to remove that? Maybe I need to modify something in the extension so that it installs properly on all the latest SPSS versions? How? Any ideas to solve the problem?
