I am looking to find a way to change the time in which I receive updates from Mozilla. Getting an update interferes with the operation of my laptop and to top it off, I don't know that there is an update coming through so I waste so much time thinking I have a problem with my connection, my router, my settings, my laptop. Hugely inconvenient. Why can't I set the time I want updates to come through and not interfere with me while my laptop is in use. This is enough to make me want to drop Firefox and switch out.

After updating my Thunderbird mail application from version 128 to 140, the shortcut icon for composing a message is no longer responsive and I cannot create a new message from it. I can no longer create a new message without right-clicking on a sent email and using “Edit as New Message (E)”. How can I get back to being able to create a message from the message creation shortcut?

Enough is enough—every update brings problems, crucial add-ons stop working, and now drag and drop attachments have stopped working. It's really inconvenient. Maybe it's time to stop this nonsense and implement paid subscriptions or purchases, but in a way that makes everything work.

I have been using Thunderbird Mail for many years and have been satisfied with it. I followed the recommendation to upgrade to version 145. Then disaster struck: the previous version was completely deleted, including all email accounts and address books. How is that possible?

My windows 10 PCs are running ver 140 (and say they are running the latest ver and no updates are available, but my W11 Pc is running v144. When I try and copy profile from 140 to 144 about 1/3rd of the directories are missing. I usually do to this prior to going on a trip when I copy from desktop pc running W10 to laptop with W11. Last time I did this there were no problems as both were running v140, but now that the laptop upgraded itself to ver144 that's no longer possible as a third of the directories end up missing - things like Inbox, Trash, Drafts, Archive etc which are fairly important. I've paused all Thunderbird updates until the problem is resolved. Can you help please?

I have no ''About Firefox'' anymore! HELP!

(If any relevance, I'm on Macos 12 Monterey) 'Installation and updates' seemed the nearest topic due to the 'update' part of it, since this seems to only have been happening since this version, or I have simply not noticed due to not having needed to know. But if you look at my two screenshots, you will see the issue. There simply is no About Firefox on my firefox. Neither directly listed on the menu, nor as part of the 'help' sub menu.

Is there, for the sake of learning, a simple fix, so that I donlt have to uninstall/re-install? or an 'about config' type fix? Screenshot 1 shows the menu Screenshot 2 shows help sub-menu As you can see, absolutely no About Firefox

And, only potential issue may be, as you'll see from the share data upload is that I've a lot of tabs open, as I've got a lot to get through toniught, and tomorrow. So, maybe, t=though doubtfully, it is because it isn't handling the tabs and this caused a menu entry to be missing? Surely not likely.
