Can you just please stop to force user to restart when there's an update? its annoying really, i've been using firefox for years, and this thing makes me want to leave firefox. At least make this message optional, let user continue browser at will and apply the update when the user finished using firefox. ps. my setting: Automatically install update ON -> When Firefox is not running (ticked/ON).

When will an ESR version of Thunderbird with Microsoft Graph support be available

I have had messages about EWS support being ended from 1st October from the Beonex ExQuilla Add-On which I have been using for many years.

So I installed Beonex's new Owl Add-On which supports Microsoft Graph Protocol and migrated my Email accounts. However, this just renamed my existing account with "Old" at the end and created new ones which cannot connect!

The IT provider for the Email Domain will not allow the Owl Beonex App to connect, despite the ExQuilla one being used for many years!

They have now pointed out that Thunderbird natively supports the Microsoft Graph Protocol from Release 154. BUT I am on the ESR channel (as I need stable Email handling) and the latest ESR Release is 153.4.0esr!

So when will an ESR be released with Graph Support, as Microsoft could stop me being able to receive and send Emails any day as it is now past 1st October???? - Please let me know your timeline for the next ESR with Graph support A.S.A.P.

I do not want to install a non-ESR as I see that the latest Release 157.0.1 fixed a bug with the Graph protocol and 155.0 streamlined the manual account configuration. So I want stick with stable releases!

Also, do I have to add new accounts to use Microsoft Graph, or can I just change the configuration of my existing ones?

If the former, then I guess once I am happy I have all old Emails available (as I rely on Emails going back many years!), I can delete the original Accounts from Thunderbird, including the non-working " Old" ones created by the ExQuilla to Owl migration????

Thanks

I had my dad on Thunderbird, and migrated him to Evolution, after your horrible failure. I only wish there was a Mac version, I'm stuck on Thunderbird on my Macs. There is no way I can trust Thunderbird, after this destructive failure. They tried to force people off of apt, Linux, and put in hooks to have apt use SNAP, want it or not! When it force migrated him off of apt, which was NOT wanted, or asked for, it lost ALL of his Thunderbird data.

Not only are you not smart enough to realize that some people don't want SNAP, AppImage, FlatPak, or other crap sandboxed garbage, but, without giving them a choice, trying to force a screwed up migration, that obviously doesn't work, and deleting ALL of their data is unacceptable. Even if it hadn't lost all of his data, it wasn't wanted, and I would have had to undo the damage.

FIreFox is the same shit, forcing to SNAP garbage. Fortunately, I have him on Brave, so it's not really needed, just installed for backup, but not being used.

I had to create install scripts just to get them to install normally, no SNAP GARBAGE! It was not easy, because they still try to force migrate.

There are a lot of authors now coming to Linux, that know nothing about it, and don't know how to use apt, so they try that sandboxed shit, not understanding that's why a lot of people are abandoning Windows and Mac in the first place. But most, if not all of them, at least have a .deb to download, or options. This is the first software I have seen trick apt into installing SNAP, then deleting all of its data. And, yes, after searching the entire drive, the data was gone.

What you did is complete BS, and unlike some of those newer people moving to Linux, you can't blame ignorance, because you are not new.

Ever since the last update 157 when i open a conversation it open every single tab in that conversation and i hate that, cause i have to close every one to go to another email. this stupid updating thing is for the birds. Another thing that i really liked in past versions that whatever color tag i wanted to use would color the subject line now it just does a little symbol all the way on the right side. Can i uninstall a update by chance?

About an hour ago Firefox auto updated to the latest and greatest version. It has ruined my online experience. It takes 5-10 or more seconds for a website to respond to my requests to do anything. Is there a quick way to go back to the previous version or do I need to uninstall the current version and then reinstall the previous version?

Hello, I'm pretty tired of Firefox updating itself without asking me or warning me, just telling me that it's going to force me to restart and kill all of my private windows without any chance of continuing browsing. I'd like to disable updates but it seems that they are forced upon the user regardless of choice. Is there a way to prevent them from happening? I managed to disable them on Linux by some miracle but can't find a way to do the same on Mac. I'd also like to remove the little popup that suggests updates every time I open it. No chance of that either? The browser is made for browsing and not for serving the needs of the browser. I really love what Firefox used to be but at this point I might as well switch to something else. The blatant disregard for user experience is what's killing me.

It would be greatly appreciated if the browser didn't update with adding a new default customization. If there's a way to revert back to the old browser, I would prefer that over the extra customization any day.
