I'm putting off upgrading Linux as I have many hundreds of undocumented addons which will be lost and would take forever to attempt to remember how to re-install.

(in fact I might just switch to macos and try using homebrew).

It seems very harsh that upgrading Firefox has been prevented by linux mint for years now.

Yes Homebrew is perhaps the way forward! Life would be easier with just one O/S as I need Macos anyway for adobe lightroom.

Hi, I do t know how to enable java script on the android phone. I am using the ad blocker extension offerings for privacy goals, so maybe I need to skip one of theses extensions. Please let me know how how to enable java script so certain websites will work. Thanks.

My version of Firefox is 108.0.1 -- I am running Windows 10 on a machine that Windows says is not capable of running Windows 11

My installation of Firefox resides on my D: drive. It uses quite a bit of space for cache and other things on my C: drive but it starts and runs on my D: drive.Now I am forced to update, but I can't get the installer to recognize an installation on the D: drive and update it. Instead it makes a new installation on my C: drive and I lose my appearance customizations, history and bookmarks.

I have never believed and cannot accept that an application absolutely MUST reside on the C: drive. It's lazy programming (something I used to do for a living). I can't believe Mozilla programmers wrote an installer that insists that Firefox must live there, so what am I missing? How do I tell the installer to find and update my existing application?

Thanks for your help. I feel as if I am missing something that ought to be obvious.

Important update! On March 14, 2025, a critical root certificate in Firefox will expire. If you’re still using an older version (before Firefox 128 or ESR 115.13+), it’s crucial to update to Firefox 128 or newer to avoid issues with add-ons, DRM-protected content, and other features.

For full details, check out Update Firefox to prevent add-ons issues from root certificate expiration.

If you have questions about the update or need help with the process, this is the place to ask! Whether you’re just starting or you’ve already updated and want to share your experience, we’d love to hear from you.

Hi,

I get messages from Gumtree which often get marked as Junk.

Is it possible to add a specific Domain to the Thunderbird White List ie @chat.gumtree.com

I have searched for this issue, but all the posts and replies I've found are very old and not very helpful.

Hello, When using my Thunderbird email, I email myself the original and then I send mass emails to people using the bcc feature so everyone doesn't receive everyone's email addresses.

I've done it several times recently without issue. Yesterday, when I tried to send something out to the group, I immediately was notified that almost everyone on the list rejected the email and it was returned as undeliverable. I did not change any settings and I did not change the email list. So why am I getting this error message: This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

...and then it goes on to list nearly everyone it was sent to, but it looks some maybe go through. I am baffled by this. I tried to resend the mass email again today and it did the same thing,

Please help. Thank you, Bill C.

Hello,

I am confused about how to update Firefox. I have a 10 year-old Mac which I have never updated (if it ain't broke, don't fix it, is my motto), and I do not know what operating system it has. I am not sure how to continue.

All the best, Patrick Burger

Effective 5 Decmber 2024 Thunderbird has been unable to download emails. WOW is my ISP and I can download them there from this computer. I can download on my iphone and my wife's ipad. I uninstalled the app and reinstalled it. It changed nothing.

Hi all,

I am on Firefox for Android version 133 and am trying to stop getting cookie banners. According to this article: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/cookie-banner-reduction-firefox-android, there should be an option under Privacy and security, but no options for the cookie banner blocker exists.

I live in Canada, not sure if it is only available in certain countries?

Thanks

I accidently deleted all my Gmail Starred emails from the gold colored “Starred” folder which is located below the Inbox/Drafts/Sent Mail/All Mail/Spam/Trash/Important folders. I didn’t know that when you delete email from “Starred” folder it also deletes email from your Inbox folder. Can I get these emails back?

Is it possible to use Thunderbird's export function to export emails sent/received between two dates on my desktop and then import that onto the work laptop? I need to update work's new laptop and only need to do it between two dates.

I started having problems sending emails (gmail) with with attachments (of 0.5 GB or more) with Thunderbird version 128.5.0esr which was installed on Nov 27, 2024. Prior to that, I was on 115.16.3 (installed Nov 20, 2024) and earlier 115.16 versions and I had no problems sending emails with file attachments up to 10GB.

I'm running Windows 10 Pro 22H2 OS build 19045.5131 (the current version).

Thanks! -- James

Now it's completely impossible to open PDFs outside Firefox, as I could do until the last couple of beta versions.

This trend is going on since a few years ago, from bad to worst. The whole design of the PDFs download process is bad. PDFs should be treated by FF as any other file: download and open with the system default PDF viewer. Imposing Firefox's internal PDF viewer as mandatory for downloaded PDFs is nonsense.
