Compacting error after converting from ESR to Release

The other day I received an email from Mozilla suggesting I move from Thunderbird ESR to the Release version (Windows 11). I backed up my profile and installed Release 139.0.2. The following error is now popping up periodically in Thunderbird: "The folder 'Inbox on [myemailaddress]' could not be compacted because writing to folder failed. Verify that you have enough disk space, and that you have write privileges to the file system, then try again."

I do not think this message is really related to disk space (there's plenty available) or file write privileges since nothing should have changed. I see that others have encountered this message where Thunderbird is trying to compact other folders. However, I did not see a solution applicable to my situation.

Thank you, in advance, for any insight in getting rid of this error.

Requesting guidance on moving from Firefox Beta to the stable Release while preserving all data

Hello, I am currently using Firefox Beta and I would like to switch to the regular Firefox Release without losing any of my data (browsing history, bookmarks, passwords, add-ons, and settings). I would appreciate guidance on the safest recommended method. Specifically:

Is it safe to install the Release version over Firefox Beta, or could this cause data loss or profile conflicts?

What is the best way to create a full backup of my Firefox profile beforehand?

Should I expect any issues with add-ons after moving from Beta to Release?

Do you recommend enabling Firefox Sync as an additional safeguard, or is a profile backup enough?

In case something goes wrong, what are the recommended recovery steps?

My setup:

Operating System: [windows 10 ]


Thank you for your assistance.

idk when exactly this nonsense happen or with which update but thats outrageous.

why the hell it canceled in my setting the check mark at startup for opening previous tabs?! i haven't touched the settings in ages since i set them up so it had to be one of your stupid updates.

fortunatly chatgpt had a solution to bring all my tabs back otherwise i'd fucking rage out.

i'v been using firefox for ages but after this i was really thinking i should switch to something else.

If possible, I would like this programme removed from my compure

how do i completely stop updates? or at least until i restart the browser, not the browser making me restart it. i have it set to "Check for updates but let you choose to install them", but its not really a choice if im forced to press the button to continue browsing...

it happens twice a day that firefox prevents me browsing and makes me wait 30 seconds for it to update after clicking the "restart firefox and update" button. very frustrating.
