thunderbird crashes when trying to add yahoo account
I've been trying to add yahoo account for several weeks, I type in the email address on the add account function and then I just get a wheel of death and have to force shut the programme, I'm on windows 11.
Chosen solution
If you using the up to date version then you might be trying to use the new Account Hub which is still under experimental phase and some people have been having a problem. Please switch it off and then retry to add the yahoo account.
- Menu app icon > New Account > Email
How to switch off / disable the 'Account Hub':
- Settings > General
- Scroll to 'Account Hub'
- uncheck /deselect this option 'Create accounts in the new Account hub'
Please report back if this works for you as the feedback information will get posted to the developers. Many thanks.
