question, if 128.3.1esr.exe is supposed to be good until mar25, why is it telling me i need win 10 when i try loading? i'm trying to stay as far away from windows as i possibly can, but unfortunately i had to reload win7 because the downloads i need for linux are being difficult with only 3 months of experience. i don't need your security, or what microsoft pretends is security. i have no intention of relying on windows, i just need to be able to download the programs to create bootable os's for my crypto miners, those are debian based. because from what i've learned so far, i just like linux better.

I just installed the new Firefox version (131.0.2) and the installation gave me a new desktop lnk (the old one is still on the desktop). The new link (to an .exe file in "C:...\AppData\Local\Mozilla Firefox\browser") starts the new version of Firefox in its newborn virgin state, i.e., EVERYTHING from my previous version is missing.

The old link (which points to an identical .exe file in a completely different directory "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\browser" with same date stamp as the .exe file mentioned above) when executed results in an error message: Platform version '131.0' is not compatible with

                                                                                              minVersion >= 131.0.2

NOTE: The files in each of these two directories appears to be identical. I really want my old profile back.

I recently upgraded my computer to add storage -- Thunderbird had been warning me for about two weeks that my storage was full and needed attention. The backstory is that about three months ago my email suddenly went from archived to my active email file as being unread and available to review. It was difficult to work around at first but that is what I have done...just worked around it. About one week ago I lost access to my Thunderbird emails. I had been working to remove files from my hard drive to free up storage space. [in the end I obtained additional storage capacity] and may have inadvertently deleted Thunderbird.

Currently: I began to reinstall thunderbird. The "Account Set Up" icon it asks for credentials--I had to create a new password (which could be the problem). The next question is for me to choose IMAP or POP3; selected POP3. I get the message "available configuration" but then when it is done searching I get an error message that says it cannot login to server and "can't login to server "possibly wrong configuration, username or password." I do not know how to get this straightened out. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Last February, I installed an update that wasn't compatible with my macOS 10.13.6 High Sierra. As a result, my bookmarks disappeared. For a long time, I've been getting popups on a daily basis, and sometimes twice daily, telling me to update again. Based on my last experience, I not about to install any more updates. I want these messages to stop.

We keep track of the latest version of Thunderbird via this link: https://product-details.mozilla.org/1.0/thunderbird_versions.json

Since some time it reports the 131.0 version as the latest stable version. I wonder if this is correct, because the release notes page doesn't mention this version at all.

Response from json: LATEST_THUNDERBIRD_ALPHA_VERSION  : 54.0a2 LATEST_THUNDERBIRD_DEVEL_VERSION  : 132.0b2 LATEST_THUNDERBIRD_NIGHTLY_VERSION : 133.0a1 LATEST_THUNDERBIRD_VERSION  : 131.0 THUNDERBIRD_ESR  : 128.3.0esr THUNDERBIRD_ESR_NEXT  :

https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/releases/ Doesn't mention the 131 version.

When manually adjusting the version number in another release notes page, it will show the actual release notes. But it mentions that this release is for testing purposes only. https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/131.0/releasenotes/

Is it possible to change the versions.json to actually show the latest stable version? And perhaps do the same as the firefox_versions.json, to also include the additional ESR channel (esr115).

Thank you in advance

I installed an automatic Mozilla update and as a result could no longer access my Thunderbird email. I tried reinstalling Thunderbird 128.3 Oesr and placing a saved copy of my Profiles on Dropbox to the Thunderbird folder in AppData and rebooting. I have tried many versions of this but always get a message saying an unexpected occur has occurred. How do I recover my email folders (inbox, outbox, and local) and address book? Together they comprise almost 6 gigs.

Everything always worked great until this upgrade emerged.

Thanks, Bob Gloudemans
