How do I deposit an Ether amount to the smart contract function, namely deposit ? (Metamask version 0.20.7)

Question

I have a problem with using the deposit () function on a smart contract. How do you use metamask 0.20.7 ?

const contractInstance = web3.eth.contract(contractAbi).at(contractAddress);
contractInstance.deposit({ from: web3.eth.accounts[0], value: web3.toHex(web3.toWei(0.1, 'ether'))}, function(err, result){ console.log(result); } );

How is it so that a user can only click and automatically release it in metamask with a number of 0.1 ETH ? I can't spend that amount when using it, but only get 0 ETH from it.

regarding the issue in the image: I had the issue with MetaMask a couple times too for two reasons. Once it just didn't go through due to a wrong gas setting, the other times the issue was with the separator "0,1" vs "0.1" depending on your language settings. Maybe this helps.
