Hyperlinks No Longer Working In TBird . . .
TBird Version: 140.7.1esr
Since yesterday I can no longer click through with hyperlinks inside an email message.
I don't understand this.
I have already tried all the troubleshooting items to no avail.
To my mind, a change was made to TBird's functionality and this is stopping the click-through to the default browser and the opening of the page linked.

Try this:
Open the TB profile:
- TB menu > Help > Troubleshooting information
- under the Application Basics section next to Profile Folder, click 'Open folder'
Close TB > rename the handlers.json file in your profile folder > restart TB
When you click a link now, you should be presented with a screen where you can choose which browser to use.
If that didn't work, try this:
Open the config editor:
- TB menu > Settings > General > scroll all the way down > click the 'Config editor' button
Search for and set these to true:
- network.protocol-handler.warn-external.http
- network.protocol-handler.warn-external.https
When you click a link now, you should be presented with a screen where you can choose which browser to use. Once done, reset the config options to false.

I had to clear the startup cache on re-entering TB after renaming the handlers.json file (handlers1.json?) but otherwise the first part of the procedure did the trick.
I also toggled the network.protocol-handler.warn-external.http & network.protocol-handler.warn-external.https booleans to true and it still works. So I'll leave them so for now.
Ace work, Ed.
Many thanks.
