Hi,

Where can I change in the settings the default Attachment Save(As) Folder / Directory. That Folder is also used by extract-em (for "save individual attachments"). On my installation it defaults to c:\user\myname\desktop but I can't find a way to change that location.

Another question : is there a way to disable the standard TB attachment Save(As) (shown at the bottom of a message) and replace it completely by extract-em ?

Thank you

Hello, you keep coming up with new and different ways to use Firefox, but you are not able to fix it to where Firefox can be used with too many websites. I am constantly having to use Microsoft Edge to connect to Hulu and The Hartford Ins. Co., just to name two which I use frequently. I don't like it, especially the problem with Hulu, which I use a lot, being retired. There are several other websites with which I have problems when I use Firefox, but can't think of them right now because I use them much less frequently.

I would be eternally grateful if you could get those problems fixed once and for all. Oh yeah, I do contribute do Mozilla once or twice per year.

Thank you, Gabrielle Pine [email address]

I am on Thunderbird Flatpack version 115.5.1 and I want to transfer to Thunderbird for Android, how do I do that, please? I am running on Chromebook using the Linux partition. I have exported the profile to a zip file, but Thunderbird for Android won't read it. The zip file is 2.5GB so maybe it is too big. But I am not adept at Linux and I can't find my way to the profile files for a manual copy. When I go into Troubleshooting Information the Profile Directory - Open Directory button does nothing. Alonside it it says "(Lolcal drive)". Maybe I should upograde Thunderbird first, but how do I do that, please?

I have several profiles which were created using About:Profiles. With the arrival of the new official "Profiles" function I had thought this would pick up my existing profiles and make switching between them easier.

It doesn't since the new official "Profiles" function doesn't see my existing profiles. Am I missing something here, or is the new official "Profiles" function somehow different than the previous, manual profiles system?

image of problem Some, but not all, pages browsed throw up a "hamburger" menu, top left of the window. (the link above should link you to a screenshot taken this morning in Firefox 142.0.1 (64) running on Win11.)

The menu button floats eternally over the text in that top-left corner. This irritates me because I read text, and am frustrated by the browser covering readable text.

I can't remember ever (20+ years) needing the Table Of Contents of a web page. I use Mozilla Firefox's excellent Edit, Find if I want to jump directly to a key word.

Anyone who can suggest a perpetual dismissal of this menu button will earn my lifelong admiration!

I can deal with Settings, About:Config, and even RegEdit. Thanks, Chris

Hello!

It would be nice to go back to the old style of the management of the Shortcuts in the browsers homepage. The new style was a regression. Let the browser user decide what style he likes.

And, - allow moving (sorting) the Shortcut links within the homepage (per drag and drop), - allow more than two Shortcut separate pages within the homepage or more than 16 Shortcuts, - remove the pin symbol from the Shortcut image, it looks terrible and it is superfluous. (I use ONLY my own shortcuts, nothing else, so the pin symbol is not needed.)

Thank you Mario

I have two accounts set up on Thunderbird. One new one with just the basic sub folders and an old one (no longer 'functional' due to failed service provider) which has many sub folders.

I have a multitude of filters on the old account directing incoming emails to appropriate sub folders and I want the same filters on the new account. Is there any way of just copying the old filters to the new account to save redoing each individual filter from scratch?

(Uptodate Thunderbird 144.0 (64-bit) on Win 10 desktop)

Any advice welcome Thank you
