Thunderbird recently updated to ver. 115.6.0, after that it seemes that my configuration got lost: I cannot get contact to my mail at the provider. My settings are as stated by the provided as a pop3 account with the right settings. Worst of all is that my files used under the former version have gone lost, too. Is there any way to return to the former version of Thunderbird or is there another way to find my files? Regards Jens Madsen

''''''''RE: Thunderbird version 115 is only offered as direct download from thunderbird.net and not as an upgrade from Thunderbird version 102 or earlier. A future release will provide updates from earlier versions.''''''''

But my Thunderbird 102 automatically updated to 115. In doing so it deleted all my Sent folders and Sent emails. Profiles backed up under 102 are incompatible with the 115 profile!!! Eventually, I was able to click and drag most of the deleted emails from a backup of 102 to 115.

If 115 is not a direct update why did it automatically update with attendant issues?

Somehow, Thunderbird updated to a new version. I didn't download or install a new version. I just closed and reopened it and it updated. When I tried to roll back to the new version, I lost all of my emails and addresses! I literally had tons of business emails and contacts and now they are gone. Thunderbird is treating this like a brand new install and I am having to set up all of my accounts all over again! Is there some way to get all of my stuff back? Or has the new install/rollback somehow written over all of my previous data?
