   Under 'Application Basics' - Profile Folder - click on 'Open Folder' 

This opens a new window showing the contents of your current in use profile name folder.

   Exit Thunderbird now - this is important. 

Look for the following files and delete them.

   cert8.db - obselete file
   cert9.db - currently used file
   key3.db - obselete file
   key4.db - current used file
   logins.json - current used file
   pkcs11.txt (some people report this file missing)
   secmod.db - obselete file
   session.json
   xulstore.json 

See next comment before you start Thunderbird as you need to empty cache files.

ADDITIONAL Whilst Thunderbird is closed - after you have deleted the files mentioned previously.

access : C:/Users/ User Account/Appdata/Local/Thunderbird/Profiles/ Please note this is the Appdata 'Local' location which the computer uses as a cache. Be sure you are in the 'Local' and not the 'Roaming' Delete the contents of the 'Profiles' folder.

then start Thunderbird. keep having to reset my secure key password and tried this in "Roaming" instead of "Local" Help!

I once bought an item from a company by the name of Autumnook Since then everyday I get an email for some bunch of products they want to sell, of no interest to me. There is an Unsubscribe on the bottom of each mail, but it has no effect.

The only email is the 'reply' address support@autumnook.com I have emailed many times - you get an automated 'we will respond within 2 working days' .. and nothing else. On their website the only contact listed is the same support@autumnook.com

Any suggestions how I can get these mails stopped  ?

I use Mozilla Thunderbird for emails. Somehow I have clicked something and lost the actual email, unless I double click on it and then it appears as though I am replying to said email. I have the columns subject/correspondence/date and that is all. I've tried many ways to get the emails back on screen, but can't see how. I'm not overly computer literate. Many thanks for any help.

Hi there, I'm trying to upload a new version of my browser extension (version 1.4.5), but the submission is being blocked due to a version number conflict. The issue is that I accidentally submitted a different extension under this listing with version 1.7.7. I reverted it immediately, but now I'm unable to upload the correct version (1.4.5) because it's considered a downgrade.

I really don't want to change my extension’s versioning just to get around this, since 1.4.5 is the actual next version in my release cycle. At the same time, I don’t want to stop updating the extension on the Mozilla Add-ons store. Is there a way to resolve this?

This is something I've never encountered, since I hardly ever go to the Sent folder except to look at something I sent. But this was a different task.

I've had a series of emails from a friend, that my wife wanted me to forward to her so she could see them. So I went to the Sent folder, and forwarded 3 of those emails to my wife. Then she told me she only got one so I went back to Sent and thought they would be at the top of the list, 1-2-3, but that was not what I found. Since those emails were each part of several different threads in the back and forth with my friend, it took me a long time to figure out which email to pick off and resend. I made sure I was sorting them by date, descending, but was bewildered that the listing had the ones I wanted embedded (see screenshot, with the ones I just sent highlighted in red)

So my question is, is there a setting where I could tell Tbird to sort strictly by send date?

Since a few months ago the newtab page layout has been changed. The site icons are now smaller, leaving a wide margin on the page. In my opinion this margin is too wide and looks strange. Is there any way to change it back?

See the OLD and NEW layout in the uploaded images.

I have recently noticed "random" mail is being added when composing reply. It only happens with Reply (All). New mail or Forwarding is not affected.

To every reply there is added text with "Jane Doe <jane.doe@example.com> = author" (with name and mail of person I know, have in contacts, but have no affiliation to replied mail). It is the same person every time. It happens on all accounts / identities. Happens on both PCs (Fedora and Arch). I do not have account for "Jane Doe" in TB.

I have looked thru all TB settings / account settings, but did not find anything. Changing said contact made no difference, the added text is still the same, so it is not being pulled from the contact. I have no extension enabled. Previous used ReplyWithHeader, when re-enabled this issue is not present.

Where is this "text" coming from and how do I get rid of it?

Thanks for help.

I'm trying to setup a new laptop and when I try to log in I enter my password, I get my email with my 2 factor code, enter it and then it kicks me back to the password screen saying "Incorrect password" . I've reset the password a few times and still get the same behavior. Am I only allowed to have 1 device logged in at once? I know in the past I was able to have multiple computers logged in.

YouTube all of a sudden started to slow down and only be able to load videos fast enough in 360p resolution, I tried watching YouTube on Microsoft edge and YouTube handled 1080p easily there, I have cleared the cash and made sure my Firefox and Windows are up to date and still the issue persists.

this only seams to occur on YouTube as amazon prime and speed test works without issues

I have a System 76 laptop running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. The LTS (Long Term Support) ended years ago with Firefox 66. All of that works fine still. My problem is: 1. The world is telling me to upgrade my browser. 2. Mozilla tells me "Note: If you use your Linux distribution's packaged version of Firefox, you will need to wait for an updated package to be released to its package repository. This article only applies if you installed Firefox manually (without using your distribution's package manager)." 3. There will never be an updated package because LTS has ended. 4. IS THERE A WAY TO MANUALLY INSTALL A NEWER BROWSER LIKE FIREFOX 123?

I am using a windows 10x64bit desktop and I want to find a 32 bit version of Firefox for my laptop which uses Windows 7 x32bit. I have tried the download for customising, ie set it for Win7/8 but the version which is downloaded reflects on the laptop that that version can only be used on a Win 10 computer. Please give me a link where I can find the 32 bit version of Firefox meant for Win 7. THANK YOU.

Possibly there was an auto update of MOZILLA FIREFOX on our DELL LAPTOP (Windows 11). Now, we cannot get a Mozilla window to open - due to error message:

XUL Runner Error: Platform version '118.0.1' is not compatible with minVersion >= 118.0 maxVersion <=118.0

Can someone please help us get back to a previous version of Mozilla Fire. Perhaps it is a Windows error. I have no way of knowing. Please help me. My email is: [removed email from public] Thank you.

For the past few days when I have tried to log into a few websites which use TLS/SSL I have gotten PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR. Please see the attached screenshot for more details. This issue was observed ever since I updated to Firefox version 124.x. Prior to that the websites were working fine.

When I try to access the same websites and try to log into them using Microsoft Edge, I do not face a similar issue. They work fine.

I have cleared the browser cache, restarted firefox, and then tried. Still faced the same issue. I have cleared the DNS cache of Firefox browser (about:networking#dns) and then tried. Still faced the same issue. I have opened Firefox in Safe mode (Menu > Help > Troubleshooting mode) and still faced the same issue.

Can someone please help me in fixing the issue? I would like to refrain from using MS Edge or chrome browser.
