Using the latest Thunderbird 148.0 (32-bit) and all add on are disallowed, there is no insert command in the drop down list. How can I get it back ?

Chosen solution

Which drop down list? If you open a "new message" window (compose window) to write a plain text message there will be no "Insert" menu. To compose a message in HTML format press the shift key and click the "New Messages" button. Or go to Account Settings > account name > Composition & Addressing and check ✔ "Compose messages in HTML format"
