Installed older version of Thunderbird (15) on top of newer version (120)>> lost access to profiles??

How can I now re-install 128? It won't download.

using Windows 10, HP 500-c60

A couple of days ago Mozilla updated the home page. Even though I examined the spiel I now get MY Home page and a Mozilla page when I open up the computer. How do i get rid of the Mozilla page?

I am getting the following error message: Platform version 131.0.1 not compatible with miniversion. Please see the screenshot attached for further details. I cannot open firefox due to this error message and I receive this error message every time I try to open the Firefox.

Good morning,

We are seeing that the key "DisableAppUpdate" being set to TRUE in about:policies. Not sure why this setting is being set. The result of the setting is "Updates disabled by your organization". So we cannot manually update firefox and are not sure why the setting is being set.

We used Procmon to capture logs:

Line 5169544: "2:29:45.2062951 AM","firefox.exe","1720","RegEnumValue","HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Mozilla\Firefox","SUCCESS","Index: 0, Name: DisableAppUpdate, Type: REG_DWORD, Length: 4, Data: 1" Line 5169546: "2:29:45.2063211 AM","firefox.exe","1720","RegEnumValue","HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Mozilla\Firefox","SUCCESS","Index: 0, Name: DisableAppUpdate, Type: REG_DWORD, Length: 4, Data: 1" Line 5169547: "2:29:45.2063338 AM","firefox.exe","1720","RegQueryValue","HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Mozilla\Firefox\DisableAppUpdate","SUCCESS","Type: REG_DWORD, Length: 4, Data: 1" Line 5169548: "2:29:45.2063563 AM","firefox.exe","1720","RegQueryValue","HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Mozilla\Firefox\DisableAppUpdate","SUCCESS","Type: REG_DWORD, Length: 4, Data: 1"

Is there anything in Firefox that can trigger the setting of this key?

This is sent as feedback only. The problem is happening on two different accounts (separate computers) of ours - again, since the last Thunderbird update. If it gets worse, I will try to re-install Thunderbird.

Firefox gets updates frequently and that's good. But with every update an extra tab is opened like this one: https://www.mozilla.org/nl/firefox/131.0/whatsnew/?oldversion=130.0.1&utm_medium=firefox-desktop&utm_source=update&utm_campaign=131

How can I tell Firefox that I know how to find it in those app stores if I was using any of them? Or that I know how to find anything that I need on the Internet?

Why this aggressive promotion? What is the business model behind those free apps?

Hi all,

as per subject, with Thunderbird 128.3.0esr in Multiweek and Month calendar views I can't move elsewhere an event with drag & drop, while I can do it in Day and Week views: am I missing anything?

Many thanks

Dear Thunderbird team I am an avid user of TB (home desktop Windows PCs), but I have been resting on my laurels on v78 for a few years now. I know, shame on me. I would like to upgrade to a stable "modern" release (emphasis on "stable" please). Can you please advise if I should aspire to end up on 115 or 128, and how I might get there ? From reading some older blogs, there is advice that says.... first go to v91, then v102, then v115, and so. That seems a bit tortuous, but I am happy to do so if that is still the recommended approach.

Also, can you advise on how I manage my Profile through all this, do I need to do various exports/imports as I move through these different versions, etc.

Many Thanks

Dear All,

I need to uninstall Firefox silently from several computers, due to company restrictions. Uninstall must be silent (automatic), because I push the uninstall from Microsoft InTune.

At this stage, using "-ms" or "/S", I can bypass the normal uninstaller prompt, but I still get a Windows warning (from User Access Control), asking autorisation to perform changes on the device.

Can I bypass this prompt as well, so that the uninstall is indeed automatic and silent?

Alternatively do you know of means to modify this at Windows level?

Many thanks!

I worked for a lot of time of some splendid webgl animation on a laptop gbl file in threejs that renders a video on screen texture and it worked fine untill firefox did some updates and videos in laptop screen is glitchy, if i disable hardware acceleration it works, BUT firefox comes with it enabled by default and when clients come into my page see that ugly effect of the video, AND no there is not video drivers problem, my drivers are the latest and i tryed on different devices same thing, i thought that there are some problems with my domain checked and triple checked and no, with an older version of firefox it works perfectly, i tryed looking on other people webgl with video on it to see maybe i have a problem on my code and its same thing, no cors problems, drivers, or how video is coded, i loved firefox im using it for years but now i hate it so much cause it ruined months of work

Trying to install Firefox on my IPhone SE, 16,6. Get the message "cannot install because of limitations in settings for this unit". Which settings need to be changed?
