Not sure, I don't use kext wizard, besides, you should select /S/L/E not Extra.

I prefer the manual way of just copying the kext to the location (preferrably to /Library/Extensions) and then repair permissions and rebuild cache.

      sudo chmod -Rf 755 /L*/E*

      sudo chown -Rf 0:0 /L*/E*
      sudo touch -f /L*/E*
      sudo chmod -Rf 755 /S*/L*/E*
      sudo chown -Rf 0:0 /S*/L*/E*
      sudo touch -f /S*/L*/E*
      sudo kextcache -Boot -U /

Old tools such as Kext Wizard are most probably totally obsolete and best avoided these days. They date back to Leopard/Snow Leopard and Chameleon days. I'm pretty sure they're unsuitable for recent OS X/macOS versions. Long gone are the days when one deleted the Extensions.mkext file in /S/L to rebuild the cache...

 

I would strongly advocate for manual (line command) kext manipulations, permissions repair and cache rebuilding as detailed in the FAQ section.
