Windows 11 Thunderbird 136.0 (64-bit). Highlight color for Inbox displays as gray or light silver. Can this color be changed to Blue or another color? TIA for any help on this issue! Bob Helms

I use 128.7.1esr (64-bit) on Windows 11 23H2. OS Name Microsoft Windows 11 Home Version 10.0.22631 Build 22631 I use two monitors: Monitor 1 is physically straight in front of me, and Monitor 2 is to the left, so in Settings > System > Display the box on the right is numbered 1, and the box on the left is numbered 2.

Since the latest TB update, each time I switch on the PC in the morning, TB (and FF) open on Monitor 2, even though I closed them down on Monitor 1 the previous night. This behaviour used to happen occasionally, now it seems to happen every time. Also, occasionally during the day, the TB Reminders window will jump to Monitor 2 while it's minimised.

I suppose the first question is - is this a TB/FF problem or a Windows problem? I'm thinking it must be a TB/FF problem, because this behaviour only seems to be happening with them.

Any suggestions would be welcome.

using (file, edit, view) type page and would like to change the bookmarks dropdown menu i would like to get rid of: Bookmark current tab, seach bookmarks, bookmark all tabs and the separators i don't use tabs, i just open new windows if i can't delete them, would like to be able to move them to the bottom thank you

Some quite strange questions, which I'm not sure to which category it belongs to, While I use last FF on my main machine, I have another machine that still use firefox 56.0.2 since I like some of the addons there that never been remade/updated to newer FF versions,

It worked fine for years but suddenly all of the addons are disabled no matter what I've tried to do, Using backup, reinstall, about:config and setting xpinstall.signatures.required to false, you name it,

I was wondering if Mozilla pulled the plug on something or if some fixed date for things to expired has arrvied, As well as if there's a way to fix it in the settings/other means?

Some people said that Dev or Nighty edition can actually turn the xpinstall signatures to false while normal FF might have the option but won't actually do it, The problem is that I have no cluse which of their versions is equal to good old 56.0.2, Can anyone tell me?

Thx

I have lost years of folders for one of my accounts. I know the path of C:\Users\kturl\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles, and have clicked on all the folders there to set up the path to the history. And a related issues, I can only see the Inbox for the account. Is there a phone number for help or can someone help me? This has been going on for now 4 months. Thank you.

My thunderbird taskbar icon just started to display arabic numberals instead of roman numerals for the count of unread mail. It's weird because it doesn't always display the arabic when hovering over the taskbar, but it has done it more often than not the past few days.

Sorry, not finding anything about this issue, and I honestly don't know if the issue is Settings, or Upgrade &c. Here's the thing:

Recent upgrade to Ubuntu 24.04. Snap version of Thunderbird (very problematic migration). It's working now, but because data was lost, and settings all re-set to zero with the Snap edition, there's been quite a bit of re-customizing &c. Here's the latest:

Someone sends me an e-mail with a .docx attachment, a daily occurence. Try to open it with Libre Office, as I have been doing for twenty years, including Open Office. But Libre Office does not show up as a helper app. Can't be selected from the right click menu. Or .. . ? Maybe I'm missing something, some new way of doing the same old thing.

When I go into settings and navigate down to Files and Attachments, I'm expecting a list of applications, and attendant actions. However, there's only a single line, for .pdf attachments. I don't see any button or facility enabling the user to add an application, and specify what happen when, for instance, you click on a .docx attachment.

And yes, Libre Office *is* installed, I've been using it regularly.

Since the recent update I'm having problems with rows I can pin sites on to. Before there were 3 rows now only 1. How do I increase the number of rows to 3. Other articles talk about a gear on the right hand side but this no longer appears. Can someone please give me an easy step by step way to do this.

Why when you click on the extensions button (jigsaw puzzle icon) in the toolbar to open the extensions panel the “Personalize Your Firefox” screen appears ???

When you right click a gear icon in a particular extension, the drop down menu has no "pin to tool bar" option, it only shows "copy/select all/print..." options ???

Thnak you.

I use a lot of containers (love this extension!) and have an improvement suggestion.

It would be helpful if the entire tab was colored, rather than just the little line at the top. I have a hard time seeing the line and distinguishing between similar colors.

For context, I have to log into multiple email and website accounts for work. The tab descriptions are often the same (for example, I'll have 3 or 4 google accounts open and they all say "Gmail" or "Admin console") so I have to click on each to find the right one since the colored line is hard for me to see.

1. My account says that my 2-step process is disabled. 2. But Gmail asks for it, but doesn't recognise the pin code number when I enter it. 3. Can someone tell me the way that I can find where my pin code is recorded. 4. So that once I've found that, I could try changing it so see if that would fix the problem.

I'm expressing a strong dislike for the very shortened list of paper sizes in Firefox in the Print function.

One big reason I use Firefox over Chrome and MS Edge is the long list of paper sizes. Now the list is a small fraction of what was there. And how many people know what sizes are the likes of A4, B3, JIS-B4. It takes extra time to figure out what works best.

The old list with Letter Plus, Letter Extra, Legal Plus, etc. was MUCH MORE useful. If I were to eliminate anything, it would be the meaningless A5, B5, etc.

At least give us an option of the old or too short new list of paper sizes.

With the updated version of Firefox (136.0.1), the menu items that were located at the top in the menu section used for modifying documents no longer are visible. How can I get those back in place?

Hello,

I have tried several times to adjust settings to get audio. I have audio on my other laptop with Firefox but not this one. I was going to un and then reinstall but Mozilla suggested I try to refresh. It doesn't work. Very frustrating. I missed out on a meeting because of this.

I can only use firefox for 90 minutes at a time, before the entire system crashes.

Since the last couple of updates, the infamous memory leak issue has gotten significantly worse. Now 30 minutes of use with no add-ons sees the memory use swell to 13 GB, crashing the system. Sometimes windows 10 crashes, sometimes it just kills firefox.

The thing is, when I check about:memory, it says firefox is only using 1.5 GB. However task manager says 13 GB, and if I close the browser, suddenly 13 GB memory gets freed up.

Does anyone have any idea why there's such a discrepancy?

Bonjour, Sur mon ordinateur portable (sous Windows 11), l'option "Afficher les aperçus d’onglets dans la barre des tâches de Windows" fonctionne bien sur l'écran principal du laptop, mais sur mon écran externe je vois depuis quelque temps une liste verticale d'intitulés de sites au lieu des aperçus normalement alignés horizontalement.

Comment obtenir l'affichage "normal" sur mon deuxième écran ?

Je joins les images des deux écrans, avec la même session Firefox et le curseur sur l'icône de la barre des tâches.

Merci d'avance pour votre aide,

Mist
