Yeah, I don't think it's updated officially to be compatible with new GNOME.
Follow instructions here:
https://micheleg.github.io/dash-to-dock/download.html#installfromsource
and it should work.

git clone https://github.com/micheleg/dash-to-dock.git
fatal: destination path 'dash-to-dock' already exists and is not an empty
directory.
This is the results of that. I have tried that several times and it
doesn't work.

I think the error is saying that you already have the directory it is
trying to create, and it isn't empty, so it isn't going to overwrite it.
Just remove that directory and it should work.

I think the error is saying that you already have the directory it is
trying to create, and it isn't empty, so it isn't going to overwrite it.
Just remove that directory and it should work.
Note that this should be done in a code working space or temporary
directory, not under ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions.
Assuming that you're in ~/code/ or whatever, it may be that you've simply
already checked out dash-to-dock previously. In that case, simply change
into that directory and do:
git checkout master
git pull
make
make install

This sounds good but I do not understand tech language, sorry. It needs to be explain to
me in good old fashion english. (getting to be a lost language, smile)

Type these commands exactly in order:
cd dash-to-dock
git checkout master
git pull
make
make install
Then, log out and log in again.

When I go to gnome-tweaks and try to install
it after doing what you
previously told me to do. It says error loading.

Okay, let's try a few more things. All command-line -- sorry. Note that none
of this is to be done as root or with sudo
First: disable the extension (just to be sure):
gnome-shell-extension-tool -d dash-to-dock(a)micxgx.gmail.com
Now, we're going to remove the installed version. Be careful with this
because it's an "rm -rf" command and a typo could delete something you
don't
mean.
rm -rf ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/dash-to-dock(a)micxgx.gmail.com/
Now, we'll go back and reinstall the extension. We're going to do this from
your Downloads directory just as a temporary working space.
cd ~/Downloads
rm -rf dash-to-dock
git clone https://github.com/micheleg/dash-to-dock.git
cd dash-to-dock
git checkout gnome-3.32
make
make install
And then we'll re-enable from the command line:
gnome-shell-extension-tool -e dash-to-dock(a)micxgx.gmail.com

Sorry, this one shuld be
git checkout master
because there's not a released version that supports 3.34 yet.
