(fixed up this run-on paragraph) Thunderbird has upgrade from version 60.9 (32 bits) to version 68.1 (64 bits) but in this process, under Windows 7 x64 SP1, the program is working in worst conditions.

  • When start (running Thunderbird from Icon Desktop), the calendar don´t appeared until some accounts checking occurred (and sometimes does not appear at all and I have to close the app and run it again or access to the calendar pane),
  • the calendar show its information with some delay (is less faster than the previous version),
  • some add-ons (like Card Book) don´t work fine (the address book data appear and disappear).

I have been using Thunderbird since many years ago, and I wish to thanks all the efforts to give us a free and good software, but the version 68,1 has worsened the reliable previous (60.9) versions and I hope this issues can be solved in future releases. I have reinstall the program, importing the messages bases, accounts, etc., but the 68.1 version is still less reliable than 60.9. In the Add-ons Control Panel the add-ons, first, show quickly an advert, and later on (less than two seconds) are recognized correctly.

Here are pert of the Error logs:
