I am currently running TB on the Debian version of Linux Mint Cinnamon.

Is there a written instruction for installing TB somewhere? Does this version install on top of the old TB or entirely by itself? When done installing, do the menu selections appear where they should, or is placing them a separate job? JC

I recently reinstalled Thunderbird in order to change from POP server to IMAP server with ATT.NET. My new install works OK, new messages are received and outgoing mail seems OK. Unfortunately, I set up message folders in the last installation, which appeared in the left hand column under my account name, and are now gone in the new install. I have spent multiple days fumbling with profiles and mail folders trying to restore the appearance and functionality of the message folders on the main page with no resolution. if there is no solution because of the POP vs IMAP nature of the message files, I will resign my self to that and stop torturing my self blindly attempting to fix the problem myself. If there is a prescribed way to recover and access the old messages I would appreciate some guidance on how to make it happen. Thanks Glen Wheeler

Does Thunderbird 128 have an automated, scheduled backup command option? I am test driving Thunderbird and have seen information online for 115 about copying the profile, etc. Does exactly this process continue for 128? Em client, which seems to me to be the nearest competitor, has a way in settings to set up a routine automatic backup for every three days.

I want to move old Gmail emails off site & delete them from Gmail. I think what I need to do is archive them to another drive, then Thunderbird will still know where they are at & search for them. Is this correct?

I updated Thunderbird to 128.0esr. My Trash folder had messages in it prior to the update. These messages now have spurious characters at the end. Copying messages from the Inbox to the Trash folder after the update does not produce this behavior. I don't know whether this occurs with folders other than Trash.

I have used Firefox as my preferred web browser for years. Following an update a couple of weeks ago, Firefox no longer starts. Instead I get the following error message:

XUL Runner Error: Platform version '127.0.2 is not compatible with minVersion>=127.0.1 maxVersion<=127.0.1

My OS is Windows 10.

I would be most grateful for any advice on how to regain access to Firefox.

Since a few days now my URL bar is too small. I can see where it used to be in light gray, but the text box is just a small part of it. I searched everywhere but I can not find anything to fix it. I even tried to reset the settings to default but it is still the same. Any idea what I can do?

Here is a screenshot of how it looks like when I click into the text box: (see attached)

Please advise how to disable automatic updates on Firefox running on Linux Kubuntu. Solutions posted on mozilla.org do not work because stated disable options are not available(see screenshot). I have set app.auto.update to false in about:config but this does not disable updates. I have been repeatedly advised not to disable updates so I am aware of the so called risk. I am very tired of every update breaking a reliable browser and having to repair/fix/workaround each and every time. Please provide a viable solution.

tumblr is a site I use all day and recently firefox began not loading the pages, and the tabs - after selecting a piece or reblog. when you hit reblog the tab should open, but NAHHHHH. Firefox has been doing this for about a week or two at this point and I'm going to switch to another browser which never does this if there's no rememdy. why does it remind me 50 times a day to update the program if it's not working properly? why does it continue to ask me to update when there's no reason to update daily.

The weekly updates would work better because this daily update is not working. Its broken Firefox and at this point I'm looking for a fix - or I'm abandoning it for a more friendly browser
