Hello everyone,

support for Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 will end in September with the end of the ESR 115 branch. Corresponding support article

Is this still the current status or are there any plans to support the old Windows versions for a little longer?

Thanks and regards, Martin

I'm a newbie using Debian and Deb 12 ships with Firefox ESR and I've decided to stick with it instead of the regular release, 'cause it breaks some extensions I have. However, I want to upgrade to the latest ESR version, how do I do it? I tried going to (https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-esr), but the file for linux 64 bit is a .tar.bz2 file, which I have no idea how to compile.

Hi guys, an automatic update seem to have made my Thunderbird Flatpak unusable. I have literally thousands of Emails in several Accounts as POP3 and need to access them. Suddenly since today I get the error message "You have launched an older version of Thunderbird" (Create New Profile) (Quit). Both choices are not acceptable for me. Any ideas what I can do? Any help is appreciated!

I recently bought a new computer and transferred all the data from my old computer to this new one. My old computer was running ESR, which was transferred to my new computer.

Without downloading a fresh install of Firefox and having to lose everything, is there a way to simply move over to the release channel of firefox? I tried syncing it up with my account but I still lost my history. Fortunately, I still have the ESR version of Firefox on my computer.

I tried to import but Firefox ESR wasn't an option.

Thunderbird used to come with spell checking ready to go.

I have just installed the latest version of Thunderbird and have written a few words including a deliberate spelling mistake and nothing happens. I get the spell checking window but no message I press recheck text and nothing happens

The check spelling while typing box is ticked.

Is a dictionary pre-installed or do you have to install one first?

Please resolve.

I'm setting up a new Thunderbird installation and email accounts. The account setup fails because it cannot sign into the server. I believe the issue is between the account ID and the email address. They are different. The server requires an account login in the form of wxyz in order to access email in the form of a@bc.de. The account ID password is the same as the email address password. I've tried using wxyz in the account and get smtp connect failure. If I use a@bc.de in the account I get the same failure. This is a working email account that I've had for 30 years. I've tried imap as well as pop3. Both fail the same way.

I know from visiting other forums that updates to Firefox have been released, but MSIX is not installing them - or even notifying me, much less asking if I want to install them. For example, Help > About Firefox shows that I am running V.129.0; yet I'm pretty sure that V.120.0.2 has been released.

Why? What can I do to ensure that I'm running the latest release?

I've restarted Firefox to see if that would work. It did not. I haven't rebooted to see if that works; but, even if it does, that seems to be a rather drastic effort to install a new version.

Trying to install Thunderbird on a new laptop but getting "unable to log in at server. Probably wrong configuration, username, or password." I don't know what the right configuration should be, but the username and pw are correct.
