Thunderbird links open in a new, clean Edge profile instead of my Default profile

I am experiencing an issue where clicking links inside Thunderbird emails forces Microsoft Edge to launch a completely brand new window with a blank profile (no extensions, default settings). It does not open as a new tab in my active window.

My environment details:

• OS: Windows 11 (Version 25H2) • Default Browser: Microsoft Edge (Only one profile exists under edge://settings/profiles, no Workspaces used). • Thunderbird version: Latest stable release.

When Thunderbird passes the HTTP/HTTPS link to Windows, Edge seems to ignore the standard "Default" user data directory profile and launches a temporary or guest-like profile container instead.

Is this a known bug in how Thunderbird handles external URI handlers, or is it an Edge registry/default app assignment issue? Any help or workaround config settings would be appreciated. Thank you!

How to keep the browser from messing with the language of websites?

I speak more than one language and want to have transparency and control of the content. Therefore I always want to see any website in it's native language first.

My preferred situation then would be to have a menu in the tab where I may choose a translation. In the case of a multi-lingual site I want to have those languages as additional options on top - with an indicator for the sites default language. So I may first choose the sites language, then (possibly) into which that is translated into.

But at present I can use only the settings of preferred language for multi-lingual sites, never knowing what language was the base for the content. (Presumably the most accurate content of the website.) And I can add languages for translation and sort them, while - weirdly - I cannot delete them later as there's no control element for getting rid of (maybe accidentally) downloaded ones.

Is there a solution already? Did I miss something in the settings? And: Where is the „translation panel“ to which the settings „Translations - More translation settings“ refer to in the block „Never translate these sites“?

I find that my desktop browser firefox is very slow or doesn't work at all on a lot of websites like amazon or fortnine.

My internet connection and computer are not the issue: 270Mbps (wired connection) Processor AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D 8-Core Processor (4.70 GHz) Installed RAM 32.0 GB (31.1 GB usable) Graphics card NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER (16 GB) Storage 3.58 TB of 10.92 TB used System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor (Windows 11)

My old PC and my mobile phone runs these website fine.

Sometimes the website will work for a moment, but stop and just load for ever after I open a new tab or clink a link. My task manager doesn't show any ethernet usage despite the tabs indicating they are trying to load. Refreshing the tabs does nothing and no matter how long I leave them they don't load. All my drivers, OS and programs are up to date. I have disabled my enhanced tracking protection and I don't have any adblockers. I have tried using the CMD "ipconfig -renew" and using ccleaner to clear out my cookies and cache but, nothing seems to have any lasting effect.

I am losing my mind trying to fix this. Why can I not browse the internet on my PC?

Any help on this would be amazing and much appreciated.

Sincerely, Calvin

Firefox version 152.0 : Firefox is continuously refreshing the page on a particular Website, in both Windows11 and Linux versions, making the site unusable ( unable to click anything ). The website loaded ok previously using Firefox and still loads ok using Chrome. Disabling extensions doesn't help, neither does deleting the cache and cookies. What changed and why? Is there anything else to try?

Everytime I restart and open firefox and then try to access facebook, sometimes google, n=some news websites and probably other apps, I get a captcha, but it repeats no matter how many times I get it right.

I was advised to do this, but it's still happening: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fX0_wiVKhw

But even that's stopped working.

I cannot access facebook and I need it for work (small org, no IT section to ask), and can't access some new sites.

I've gone to basic security settings, but that doesn't help.

What to do?

When I try to forward email with attachment. I get a error message stating I dont have access for the attached file so every time I have to remove the attachment in the email and download the attachment from original email and attach to my email. Which is frustrating and time consuming process.

What I thick is there is storage path issue with my email setup.

Please assist to resolve this issue.

My tabs crash all the time. Sometimes it'll go a while without crashing, other times it's literally every two seconds. Particularly if I'm doing anything that doesn't autosave. Thanks. Sometimes it's just whatever tab I'm on (or occasionally I'll click on one I've had open in the background only to discover it crashed at some point, other times (and not infrequently!) it crashes the entire browser. Sometimes when it does that, it also logs me out of everything for no particular reason as a little sadistic cherry on top. The passwords are still saved I'm just logged out of EVERYTHING. A few times, it seemed to have made my bookmarks go away, but force-stopping it and re-entering made them reappear, so they weren't deleted. I don't know what's going on but I'm at my wit's end. The crash reports mostly just say EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION_WRITE (I haven't checked every single one individually since there's too many, but the ones I've clicked on all say that as far as I recall). If this keeps up I'm going to have to switch browsers or something because I'm actually losing it.

Can I use TB to store all old email which I want to delete from server?

Hi all. My mail account reached 50 GB (it's too much) and this is what I plan to do:

1) Download all emails to TB 2) Remove emails older then 1 year from server (for now I don't know how to do that) 3) Keep all emails in TB and use it as my local database - if I'm looking for some old mails then I will go to TB

Important information - daily I don't use TB. I log to my mail via web gui.

The question is - what TB will do when it connects to server and notices that older emails are deleted. Will TB also delete them locally? It's not what I want - my goal is to keep old emails locally. Should I disconnect TB from server after downloading all email by changing credentials?

Please tell me what you think about that plan. Do you see better way to store old emails and keep mailbox slim on the server? I want to fit in 2-5 GB.

By the way do you have idea how to delete mails older then 1 year from server? I have shell access.

Hey, I'd like to switch from Outlook to Thunderbird. I’ve already tried switching to Thunderbird once when I switched to Linux, but—now to my question: The most important feature for me is being able to use different colors in the calendar to mark appointments. I wasn’t able to get this to work on Linux, even with AI. Isn’t this option available? But if people are switching away from Outlook, surely a small feature like this shouldn’t be a problem?

Can anyone help me with this?
