I've been using 128.11.1esr. I just tried Release again, 139.0.2. It wakes up with none of my profile settings. No accounts, no email. Just looks like an initial empty launch. I'm switching back.

Should I be doing anything other than just downloading and launching the new version? Or is the Release version really this bad?

Hi Guys, I have just installed Linux Mint 22.1 on a laptop and I am using Thunderbird for Linux Mint as my email program. The version of Thunderbird I have is 128.11.1esr(64bit). I cannot update Thunderbird to the latest version because it says "Updates disabled by your system administrator" How do I overcome this problem? Thank you.

Compacting error after converting from ESR to Release

The other day I received an email from Mozilla suggesting I move from Thunderbird ESR to the Release version (Windows 11). I backed up my profile and installed Release 139.0.2. The following error is now popping up periodically in Thunderbird: "The folder 'Inbox on [myemailaddress]' could not be compacted because writing to folder failed. Verify that you have enough disk space, and that you have write privileges to the file system, then try again."

I do not think this message is really related to disk space (there's plenty available) or file write privileges since nothing should have changed. I see that others have encountered this message where Thunderbird is trying to compact other folders. However, I did not see a solution applicable to my situation.

Thank you, in advance, for any insight in getting rid of this error.

We kindly ask you to start releasing a portable version.

For a few days a banner persists on the lower left of the message window. It obscures content. ""Upgrade to Thunderbird Release"" I have checked twice to make sure there is no update available. Why does this annoying message persist after I run the update. I have rebooted the application multiple times. I do not want to click "Learn more" on the annoying banner promoting "Get monthly updates. with new features and improvements in the new Thunderbird Release" Is it malware? If the application is up to date why are you forcing me to "Learn more"? This is not a good user experience. My MacBook Air is up to date. Thunderbird release 128.11.1esr
