Disable Auto-Update NOTIFICATIONS in Thunderbird?

Can I stop being notified of new updates? I don't even want to hear about them. A registry change maybe?

A previous thread I started requested help for an issue that transpired when I updated from 102 to 115 back in 2023. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1424162 After messing with it, I uninstalled the 115 update, deleted Thunderbird folders in my user's AppData folders and reinstalled the last update I knew that worked with the email that Thunderbird was having a problem which was 102. I had turned off auto-updates and got my four email accounts back like I prefer.

Last month I was presented with an update notification that I confused with a Firefox update and installed it. Darn - the Unified Folder in that one email was messed up again. I attempted some settings changed to the folders and it seemed to work. I was not too thrilled with the toolbar change at the top, preferring the small print Menu Bar at top, with Tabs directly under and finally Mail Toolbar at bottom but I resigned to live with the change.

A few weeks passed and the Unified Folder for that one email once again had a couple of subfolders under the account AND ALSO I noticed that syncing with my iPhone and other computers stopped. I was having to delete messages twice. TIME TO UNINSTALL AND FIND 102 AGAIN.

Not a huge deal besides needed to redo the columns to my preferences and I finally figured out the child inheritance to other folders thing with all this practice re-configuring to older versions.

So the question... is there a chance that I can have the new update notification stopped? I don't want to even be notified by way of a periodic popup that I have to be on my toes so I can dismiss.

Thanks, Steve

This works. The post indicates that an inability to find update will appear, but it may not - but this does work: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1438626

I am sure others will step in and offer you the settings for corporate environments that allow the update server to be changed, and meet your request but that does not address the underlying corruption issues that are exposed by the update. I will not be doing that. I feel having a supported version is more important than individual desires to use old versions and in that I include myself. I hate V115, but use it. There have been quite a number of security fixes since a version of 102 was released. Many security issues and vulnerabilities can not be addressed by antivirus products so using outdated software leaves you vulnerable.

Could it be you have not installed and run the addon which basically resets the corrupted folders. So do it the manual way if you do not wish to use the addon written the Thunderbird staff and suggested by one of the few staff that are to be regularly seen in this forum.

Open your profile folder, go to the mail folder in it. Shut down Thunderbird Locate the "smart folders" folder in there and delete the folder. Restart Thunderbird.
