I think you have changed the file name: the extension has to be .keylayout for macOS to recognize it.
This has not changed since Monterey, by the way :-)

The best way to install a keyboard layout is to copy it to a special Ukelele work folder you create, then use Ukelele Organiser to install it.
That way, the validity is checked, you don’t have to deal with the various Layout folders, and you’re alerted about logging out and back in.

After downloading your file, I changed the extension, but macOS didn’t recognize it.
So it seems you haven’t changed the file name extension, you just got the wrong file!

Strange: I’ve checked online, but I can’t find any program that uses files with the extension .keymapping

Looks like a corrupt file, not a keylayout anyway.
