I am re-installing Windows10 Pro for a clean install. I made a backup of my profiles of Firefox and Thunderbird, both in AppData Local and Roaming. After reinstallation of Firefox and Thunderbird, I deleted the new profiles and recovered the old ones. Now I get a message that I'm missing a profile. I still get it after deleting the apps and doing a clean install. What can I do?

Running Thunderbird 102.7.1. Accidently deleted C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird yesterday. After recovering the particular Thunderbird folder and coping it back to C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming, Thunderbird doesn't recognize my profiles, calendar, tasks, etc. but rather opens Home as shown in the attached picture. I've had 6 email accounts connected and was about to connect the 7th.

I also tried copying profile files + profile.ini to the newly created profile folder when I restart Thunderbird, but no success - the same Home appears.

I am trying to set up Thunderbird on a new computer. I can receive e-mails but not send them. I can type an e-mail but when I click 'send' nothing happens. I can save it as a draft, but when I open the draft the 'Send' button is greyed out and I still can't send it.

Want to move Thunderbird profile to new computer. Downloaded a copy of Thunderbird on new computer. Followed Mozilla Support instructions for copying profile etc. (used external hard drive). No problems until I tried to open new Thunderbird. Got error message "Profile Missing".

Tried solution found on Support pages: ran thunderbird.exe -p that starts profile manager - click 'create profile' , then click 'new', then enter a short name (e.g., PROFILE) and then click the browse button to select and activate your profile.

Now when I open new Thunderbird, it runs, but it takes me to Account Setup page as though I never downloaded Profile from old machine. Thought maybe I still needed to run Import tool; tried that but it had no effect. I feel so imcompetent! What am I doing wrong???

I recently recovered the data from a corrupted laptop from 2005 that had a bunch of old emails stored in Thunderbird 1.0 using Windows XP. I would love to recover them and convert them to .mbox, but haven't found a way to convert or to install that version of Thunderbird on a modern laptop. Many thanks in advance for any advice!

I get my internet thru Breezeline.com. I use Thunderbird for my emails for myself and husband =-separate email account. I lost connection to thunderbird. I cannot write any emails. I don't understand the settings for SMTP or that kind of stuff so how do i get my emails up and running again.

Hello. I would like to use Firefox on my Mac, but my processor is a 2.7 GHZ Quad-core Intel i5 and I would want to download the Vidiq extension. I have checked the other system requirements and they are fine.

Will Firefox work with this processor? Would the Vidiq extension work ok?

Hello, I was hoping someone here might be able to help. I've had to re-install Thunderbird on a Windows desktop computer (likely after the machine had been formatted and Windows re-installed), and set up again two email accounts. I've also brought back the Thunderbird profile from a backup. Yet, several folders that existed before are no longer there -- including the Sent folder under one of the accounts, a Gmail one. I'm not sure whether the missing folders were under that Gmail account, or rather local folders, but I assume that either way they would be in the backed up profile. What can I do to resurrect those missing folders? Thank you in advance.

I am trying to set up a fresh install of Thunderbird on my Windows 10 computer with smtp.google.com as my outgoing server but OAuth2 is not showing up as an authentication method option. It shows up on my incoming server and I can receive mail but it does not show up in my SMTP settings and I can't send mail

I love using gmail. But to prepare for the day when my Google storage is full, I'd like to migrate all the email in my gmail to the one-terabyte yahoo mail.

What's a free way to do this? (I'm on Linux Mint, if that makes a difference)

Can Thunderbird do this? How can thunderbird do this? Is there an easier way than using Thunderbird?

OK, I am very angry ....

FF asks me to update, when i launch the browser, and it continues doing so when browsing. I HATE THIS BEHAVIOUR and I know how to use a computer.

     I do not need to be mollycoddled by some 2bit computer company that has no idea what Professional computer users need. 
         Bare in mind I am in the mood to migrate away from FF completely without a tick button answer. 
         I am also in the mood to take drastic action if this is not resolved. IT SHOULD BE IN THE SOFTWARE IF I SELECT IT.

I want to use FF without an automatic update, which the software DOES NOT ALLOW (removed threat as per [rules and guidelines here).

I am running FF 107.01 (i don't care if its out of date).

Previous .json answer did not work. neither did going into settings.

only a complete ban on updates will suffice. (i will update myself as i feel like it.) I will not tolerate another answer.

FIX IT NOW!!!!

We have put user and computer startup scripts to detect and delete firefox from our enterprise customers. Firefox cannot be kept SAFe through InfoSec.

InfoSec and SAFe require the business be in charge of security which is what our customers understand. They constantly find firefox out of date and vulnerable. We have tried over and over to use the firefox admx files to force background update both at the computer and user OUs but find that users can uncheck the box and it remains vulnerable and out of compliance. Edge and Chrome can be controlled by the business (not end user) through group policy and kept up to date and we never find either out of date by implementing our policies.

Firefox constantly tells end users how to check the boxes and no group policy can enforce them as we don't see the registry updated even though we even put a registry patch in, firefox is still in the control of the end user and not SAFe. If you don't know what I mean by SAFe, check this out.

v102.7.1 was released nearly a week ago, but my Thunderbird is still on v102.6.1.

Has the rollout of v102.7.1 been paused (again) for some reason, or can I reasonably safely manually update to v102.7.1 by going to Help - About Thunderbird?

Thanks!
