There seems to be no possible way to change the shortcut for peeking at the tabs in the sidebar (when sidebar revamp is enabled) from the about:keyboard UI. I have so far managed to modify the shortcut through intercepting function calls.

What I have done: 1. Read through the JS source code for about:keyboard which says the shortcut ID is `toggleSidebarKb` 2. Added hooks to intercept `RPMSendQuery` calls 3. Modified the shortcut through devtools open on the about:keyboard page with the following snippet

```js await RPMSendQuery("CustomKeys:ChangeKey", {

 "modifiers": "accel",
 "isValid": true,
 "key": "S",
 "shortcut": "Ctrl+S",
 "id": "toggleSidebarKb"

}) ```

The way I am doing it is definitely a hack. I am not sure if I am missing something. Although the shortcuts for bookmarks, history, and GenAI chat sidebar are present, there seems to be no entry to change the sidebar toggle shortcut itself. I'd love to work on this but I haven't been able to mach bootstrap on NixOS.

Thank you for any assistance :)

I have downloaded Thunderbird from official Mozilla homepage. It seems to be installed correct. I got the icon and a question : should we start Thunderbird now. I answer yes. Then I get the message : Thunderbird is not found ? but I have just loaded it ? I am running windows 11 and I have got newest upgrade.

Hope you can help me out. Thx in advance. Regards Thorvald Antvorskov

PS I also have a PC running Linux Mint. Loading Thunderbird here was no problem.

FF is offering up possible login names for a particular site I have used previously even though I have removed all related browsing history, form data, and cookies (and cleared the cache). What am I missing? Is it using stored history for unrelated sites to guess at a user name, or is there some other hidden history I need to clear?

Good evening. I have had to install my FF after a system repair. I have everything set back except when I click on a link and hightlight an item with my mouse and right click it opens a new tab. But before where it would just open it changes to the new tab immediately. Under settings I have the 'when open new tab switch to it immediately' unchecked and I was directed to four settings on about:config including browser.tabs.loadDivertedInBackground to set to true. I did and the behavior did not change. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thank you.

Then message is shown like this cannot logged in server, check if username, password or setting. I renewed password but still same message is shown. I would appreciate kind help.

I tried importing my Outlook Classic address book. As you can see from the attachment, I really messed it up!. I am not technical at all, I wasn't sure if I needed to import my contacts or my address book. I think, but am not really sure, that I exported my .pst file, address book to a csv vile. Can anyone one straighten me out? If I have to start over, how do I delete the mess I created without loosing all of my other settings? Thank you very much 😊😊😊
