How do I configure the new "Local Folders" archive set just created - so they'll be displayed and searchable in the Email folder view?

Thunderbird v128.9.0esr (64-bit) on Linux Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS

I have archived emails on my IMAP server for some time.

Now to avoid a full quota on the server I have reconfigured the Archive to "Local Folders" and changed the configuration to yyyy/yyyy-mm.

After archiving "fresh" emails and re-archiving from the IMAP server archive folder

I can see the respective sequences of folders under the menu

  • Account Settings
  • email@account.com
  • Copies & Folders
  • Archives on Local Folder
and within the file selector menu
  • Archives on Local Folders
  • Local Folders
  • Archives
  • 2023
  • 2023-01
  • 2023-02
  • etc

The result in the email account folder shows the old "Archive" folder - but now emptied - alongside new (unarchived) emails.

On interrogating the Archive folder properties the location reported is the (previous) IMAP address.

So how do I:

  1. identify the location of the newly created "Local Folders" archive set, and
  2. make the Archive folder set display and be searchable in the Email folder view?

Before the last Firefox update, I was able to view jpeg attachments in emails (before and after sending) in Windows phot viewer - now I can't!!?? The options it offers to view are weird - adobe, media viewer etc - rather than before where it was Paint, Picture viewer etc? - and in settings, the ascribing options are the same, and I can't find any other on offer? How can I ascribe something like Windows picture viewer to attachments? (I have managed to get t to accept Photoshop - but that is a slow-opener) Mike

I use Firefox app on my samsung and the browser it's great, I'm logged in and in sync w my laptop, all my tabs are kept, but every other day or so when I open the app it's acting like I just installed it, I get some kind of "get started" pop up and my browsers set back to light mode and no wallpaper. It's a minor thing but changing it constantly back to dark mode and setting a wallpaper is getting really annoying. I've included screenshots of how my homepage looked before, what it now keeps resetting to, and that introduction pop up I also keep getting. The app is up to date and I have no other issues, just this increasingly annoying one.
