I've been using Thunderbird for years, always storing message on my machine. My local profile folder is now 2.3GB with 14,191 files in 688 folders. I suspect there is a lot of "orphaned" junk there. Most suspicious are hundreds of folders and files in subfolders named Cache and Cache.Trash, all dated in 2017. There is a cache2 folder that appears to be current.

I also have several other folders/files with dates (modified) back in 2017 and 2018, apparently no longer in use. I'm migrating to a new machine and would like to avoid junk if it's really junk. Is there a "cleanup" tool, or any guidance on how to identify and delete orphans?

Or... is there a way to "export" all and then "import" on a new machine. I've seen the migrate video, but it just tells how to copy/paste everything.

Option to Open instead of Save is gone as of 98.0.1

Firefox used to give the option to open a file without saving. Now it saves everything to my downloads folder with no option to just open. (I am aware Firefox used to save the opened files in temp). This causes major clutter in my downloads folder and big disruptions to my work flow. Sometimes I just want to view the file and not save it to my working folder (downloads).

Is there a workaround to save to opened files in temp and the saved files to download?

Does Firefox give 2 different "save to" options? One option for a location to save downloaded files and one option for a location to save opened files?

Hello,

I have downloaded Thunderbird so I can access all of the emails I have downloaded from my company's past Gmail accounts. How much storage do I get with Thunderbird please?

Also, Once I have imported all of the data will it be saved on my computer or on your server? I wanted a way of doing this that won't be too heavy in my harddrive.

Many thanks,

Breeze

Thunderbird 91.9.0 says it cannot update and I need to download and install new version.

1. will this wipe out my current version? 2. How do I back up the old version/data so that it is recoverable?

I have things stored in some folders that I really do not want to have to singularly back up to other files and folders, as it would take me about 3 hours to do.

Any help apprecated.

So I'm currently trying to download and switch my browser on my Motorola phone to Firefox because of the newest Google tracking news, but I'm having problems. Everytime i try to download both Firefox or Firefox Focus itll go all the way to 100%, but then jump back to exactly 37% on both. this is repeated and I've been trying for about 30 minutes to figure this out. I'm hoping it's just Google play [removed] with it but i don't know. help?

Problem accessing old email from both windows 7 and Ubuntu on dual boot machine

Hi Team, I love TB and have been using it for a very long time. Until recently I was able to access my profile from both windows 7 and Ubuntu 20.04. The current versions are 91.9 on Ubuntu and 78.4.3 on Windows 7. I have 2 users (my wife and I) and somehow seem to have got into a real mess. My wife is asked all the "new install" account stuff from either windows or ubuntu. For myself I can open my profile successfully (bizarrely) with 91.9 on ubuntu but hit the install issue on windows 7. I have in the past messed around with profiles.ini with some success, but so far I havent been able to massage my configs so that I and my wife can access our old profiles.

I have looked though some of the existing issues but am hoping some kind soul will explain to me: a) can I use latest code to access the same profile b) how to configure the magic, please?

regards, Paul

So i have the new Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra, never had a tablet until now. Why is there no tablet mode variant of firefox? I LOVE the use of extensions and it's my primary phone and desktop browser, but all the other browsers, duckduckgo, chrome, samsung internet, brave, and opera have tablet modes with a bookmarks bar, full tabs, and defaults to desktop user-agents most of the time. And even with Firefox being somewhat usable on a tablet, the scaling on it causes a lot of glitches like the address bar doubling over when you go in to type another search/domain while on a website already.

I'm insanely bummed that I can't use my favorite browser that has everything i love on my tablet because they just haven't optimized it in the slightest for the large scale experience.
