I am running W11, and use Thunderbird and Firefox, with Dudk Duck Go, but since downloading TB139.0.2 TB has become schizophrenic If I click on the TB con,the latest version of TB displays and I find it difficult to negotiate. But if I double click on that icon the older version of TB loads and seems to work OK

My Win10 & Win11 pc's updated to this version and they all have the same problem: The bookmarks have disappeared. Including my pinned bookmarks on FF's opening page.

I also just noticed that there are no "toolbar items".

I'm in the process of cleaning up Thunderbird e-mail before moving to a new computer. I started with 11,593 e-mails in my Inbox and 7,799 e-mails in my Sent folder. I'm now down to 7,634 in my Inbox and 4,965 in my Sent folder. I've allocated 2 weeks for this process and found that it's taking me about 3 hours per day to meet my daily goals. I'm finding that I'm spending at LEAST half the time responding to "Empty-Trash/Compact-folders" requests. There are times I can delete 50 e-mails at a time without getting a request. Other times I will try to delete ten e-mails and get the request. With the old version of Thunderbird I could literally delete hundreds of e-mails at a time. Can you help? Russ Bukwa Yardley, PA ps. I have intentionally given you specific numbers. Based on my software- and test-engineering experience, I speculate you need to create a stress test to solve this nagging problem.

Not all the time but getting more frequent

Any ideas

As the question stated I have navigated to my mozilla profile folder, ( C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\pw1dnvcy.default-release ) but there is no file called persdict.dat. I have ensured all file name extensions are visible, & none are hidden in windows file explorer (Win 10). I am at al loss I cannot figure this out.

Mailfence.com is my email provider. I've been with them for years. Two weeks ago I am suddenly unable to connect with the website. My ISP is Comcast. My next door neighbor also uses Comcast. He can get to mailfence.com just fine. Can you please help with this issue. Comcast has declined to provide any help. Thanks.........Bob Horning

For the past 2 days, Facebook won't load when I try to change my page to another (just switching between accounts). It acts like it is changing or loading, and then I just get nothing. I have done all of the things that are requested from clearing my cache, browsing data, restarting, etc. Nothing is working. I've attached a picture of my screen of I receive when I try to change pages - the big F. LOL Facebook on my phone works fine. I've tried also turning off my VPN and it doesn't load.

I've also had issues with my Xfinity email loading unless I turn off my VPN.

So what is going on?

Got upgraded to windows 11. Very frequently when I try and open a tab with Firefox, I can't open it. It's running, but stuck minimized. I can see the little mini version of it when i mouse over the shortcut on my taskbar. I've followed instructions of people who have also had this problem. I've deleted and renamed xulstore. The only thing that ever solves the problem when it comes up (which is often) is trying to uninstall firefox and then refreshing it instead.

This is kind of untenable though because I'd really rather not reinstall my plugins every day and get logged out of everything. What should I do to make this problem go away forever without constantly having to take time and reset firefox

I am trying to install Firefox on my new iMac. I can download the Firefox.dmg file and click the Eject "Firefox", but Firefox is not appearing in my Applications folder. What am I doing wrong? How do I get it to transfer?

Is there a way of changing/removing the independence of browser windows?

Whenever I have multiple windows and close one them I cannot retrieve them, re-opening closed tabs doesn't work, since it only works on their own window.

Is there a way to change this behaviour?

I hope I have explained myself, thanks.

Updated recently from (I believe) 138.04 to 139.0.1, and immediately noticed that the size of font (and icons) had changed in the folders I have in the bookmark toolbar, that is they are much smaller and thus also less space between. Why this, and is it possible to change the size, without changing something else?

It's possible that many don't have folders in the toolbar and thus don't notice, but I have 2-3 apart from bookmarks.

I remember a change many versions ago that increased the space between entries in the bookmark menu, and also in the bookmark toolbar folders. That was too much and I found a setting [in config] that could be changed to decrease the space back then. (I haven't looked for that solution now, probably have some doc somewhere, and won't bother searching since this is different. Same with this case; I did some quick initial search but found next to nothing and older. BTW, this is one of the downsides of changes like these and similar; the day you have too move to another OS version, i.e. reinstall everything you also have to keep documentation of all these little changes, apart from all the other things you'll have to export or save.)

Can anyone tell me how to set up the THUNDERBIRD TO ALWAYS LOG-IN into its own Messenger and avoid the Yahoo's interference with his INADEQUATE Messenger format - this should not be high-science question but I have difficulties to find an information in the HELP-section - thanks, Tony H. ...!

Hi there all!

I have been using these Add-on's for years and suddenly this week they 'dropped off' - note the greyed out ones that no longer work. I did report the add on's via the button inside to the developers as potentially broken but I'm not sure how I would hear anything back from them about that. After about 4-5 days now they are still not working. I'm unsure why they are greyed out, and the others are not - why these stopped working and the others ok. Here are the screen shots of the ones I'm referring to! They were *VERY GOOD* add on's! I would super love them back.

If you have any advice please let me know.

Thank you.

I want to permanently remove Quora and Reddit from my search results, so I asked AI and on number 4. it says "Add Search Engine" but in my firefox settings their is no such setting. Any suggestions would be helpful. Here is the AI response:

To permanently remove Quora and Reddit from your Firefox search results, you can create a custom search engine that excludes these sites. This involves adding a new search engine with a modified search query that includes site exclusions, and then making it your default search engine. Here's how to do it:

 1.  Open Firefox settings: Click the menu button (three horizontal lines) in the top right corner and select "Settings".
 2.  Go to Search: In the left sidebar, click on "Search".
 3.  Find Search Shortcuts: Scroll down to the "Search Shortcuts" section.
 4.  Add a new search engine: Click the "Add Search Engine" button.
 5. Fill in the details:
       Name: Give it a name like "Google Clean" or similar.
       Keyword: Choose a keyword, for example, "gc".
       URL: This is the most important part. Use the following modified URL, replacing YOUR_SEARCH_QUERY with %s: 

https://www.google.com/search?q=%s -site:quora.com -site:reddit.com This tells Firefox to search Google, but exclude results from Quora and Reddit.

   Make it default: Click the three dots next to your newly created search engine and select "Make Default". 

Now, when you type a search query into the Firefox address bar, it will automatically exclude Quora and Reddit from the search results.

Hello, When I try to use Mozilla firefox, using this rather than Google chrome I get the following warning from Malwarebyte: Exploit.PayloadProcess.Block, making me feel uneasy. Best wishes, Torbjørn Borgen Lindhardt, Denmark

I read the The Times in the UK and have no problem viewing on my iPad and Google Pixel phone using the Firefox browser. However on my laptop using Firefox I get a screen that says Secure connection failed and recommends contacting the vendor as there is no workaround. On microsoft Edge there is no problem I like Firefox but for me this is a major limitation. Any ideas or suggestions welcome
