Outlook Email and Calendar Sync. Version 138 vs 139

more options

I just purchased a new laptop and am trying to get Thunderbird up and running. I have an outlook email account and use it's calendar. On my previous laptop (manjaro linux) I ran Thunderbird version 138.0 which allowed me to install TBSync and customize via the chrome file. It worked great at bringing the calendar over to Thunderbird. Now, on my new laptop (also Manjaro Linux) the package manager is only presenting version 139+ to install but TBSync does not work on this version of Thunderbird and I can't figure out how to install Thunderbird version 138 on the new laptop.

So, I need help either syncing my calendar in thunderbird version 139 to my outlook account or on how to install thunderbird version 138 so I can add TBSync. I've downloaded the file for version 138 but don't know how to install it. This shouldn't be so difficult.

Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

Worked great. Took me a little while to follow the thread and understand the add-ons are added to thunderbird as a file once .zip is changed to .xpi. Thanks for your help!!
