I do not like the current Firefox. I am 'trying' to get my firefox the way it was in the previous session yesterday.

Monday 19th.

For some reason I click a tab this evening and I lost everything. Now it is a lavender color (ugg) and all my information, tabs, everything is gone.

Please help.

1. Enable the search box to the right side of URL box in browser UI.
2. Open new tab (empty URL box).
3. Press TAB.
4. The search engine SELECTOR becomes highlighted, instead of the search INPUT.
5. Web application software developer is blocked from typing search query right away.
6. Must press ANOTHER TAB.
7. This breaks the workflow. It never used to do this, you could type immediately after tabbing ONCE.
8. Search is disabled in URL box to facilitate local domain resolution/error and NOT trigger fallback searching.

Please revert the behaviour to normal, and make the single TAB operation focus on the search INPUT.

The Proton VPN extension/add-on usage can override the Firefox language setting when it assigns a user to a node in another land. That land's language can suddenly become the default language one sees, and may remain in spite of trying to reset the Firefox language default. E.g., if one is assigned a VPN node in Japan, suddenly the general language one sees is Japanese, and it remains in spite of disabling Proton VPN and even after exiting and signing back in. The only alternative one has is to request a different node and then wait for the timeout (30 sec., 2 minutes, etc.) for another and hopefully understandable language/country node.

I raised this issue with Proton, and they maintain that loss of one's language proves that Proton VPN is working (see my response under ratings)

1. How does someone accept "working" VPN when one loses their ability to comprehend the displayed language? In my past experiences with other VPNs (NordVPN, etc.) they never corrupted my default browser language.

2. Accessibility issues???

I just got thunderbird and I'm so grateful to the ones who have immediately answered my questions. Now I'm trying to transfer my email of thunderbird from my pc to my cell phone. I keep trying to take picture of the QR code and it won't take it. I tried with my regular camera and it took it fine. Can you help me? Thank you for your time and knowledge.

some time ago I configured by thunderbird account to announce "You have mail" and it worked reliably until frontier moved email support to yahoo. Since then I get the "you have mail" announcement for a low percentage of new mail messages received. I contacted yahoo mail support and they responded that this is a problem with thunderbird and has nothing to do with yahoo. I suspect it's a matter of which process "sees" the new message first - thunderbird of yahoo mail. I've tried not having a yahoo mail window active, but that makes no difference. Most of the time now I get only a "gong" sound when a new mail message is received rather than "You have mail" voice notification.

Thunderbird for Android: When sending a message, the copy moved to the Sent folder is not marked as "read" after moving. Messages sent from the Android client and subsequently auto-filed into "Sent" or "Sent Mail" are still marked as "unread" after the move. They should be marked as "read" as part of the move, just like with the Windows client. I've searched the various Settings and I can't find any related setting.

Thank you for your attention to this matter,
