After Windows installed an update in the middle of the night I can't open Thunderbird and I've tried uninstalling it and reinstalling with success.

It says: Thunderbird is already running, but is not responding. The old Thunderbird process must be closed to open a new window.

I've rebooted the PC, shut down the PC, ended the task and still nothing. It seem that Thunderbird didn't shut down correctly and the system still thinks that it's open and running. Anyone know how I can fix this issue?

Thanks,

Gregg

How do I get rid of this error, has been present since last esr release and expected it to go away with new release - did not. Do I have to reinstall Thunderbird to clear.

To sync a mobile device, the instructions say to open Firefox browser on mobile, from Menu go to Sign In, aim phone camera at QR code. The 3 lines at the screen bottom right (i'm assuming this is a menu but printing an icon labelled "menu" is less cryptic) offers no sign in opportunity.

I have an account that I am not aware of having requested. The address is the same as the original account and the inbox appears to also be the same. It does state POP3 after the address. I want to remove this account. How can I do that?

When I tried to delete the account all the emails before today on the POP3 address and the original address disappeared. Is it possible to get the emails back or the recent ones?

Hello. The browser will start fine and run for most of the day. I haven't made any known changes to the PC. At some point the browser will crash for all tabs and all windows. Any attempt to refresh goes to the screen as seen in the attached image. The "Restore This Tab" button does not work. I have to close all Firefox windows. Then the browser will work again.

I'm using an Alien computer. Windows 11. Everything is up to date. Firefox version 145.0.2 (64-bit)

Thank you.

I am a big fan of firefox but i see some difference between firefox and chromium based browser that is Smoothness. All those scroll and swipe are beautifully smooth on Chromium based browser but in Firefox, it stutter and feeling visual lag. I know that Firefox is made by different engine but on IOS it's feels smooth but on Android it's sluggish. I hope you guys find a way to fix those problem.

I use the email address maszyn1_laptop@interia.pl. The account is configured in Thunderbird on a Lenovo laptop. The laptop is protected by ESET Smart Security antivirus software. As recommended by Eset, I added ESET VPN to my protection. After enabling ESET VPN, the address doesn't configure. It requests a password. I receive messages that the server is disconnecting. Other addresses work. Disabling ESET VPN causes the address to work. This problem doesn't occur on my other Outlook email client. I would appreciate your help in resolving this issue.
