i been using my bank to pay my bills. but all of sudden i can't . it says my browser is outdated, but it isn't. the rest of the banking site works fine just my bill pay. and it works fine for everything else online.

I have a Hotmail account and multiple gmail accounts. When I try following your (obscure) instructions for changing passwords, the box of passwords is only for my gmail accounts. None for my hotmail.

As Hotmail is very important to me, I'd like to keep accessing it through TB but you make it tough.

I am now not receiving my Hotmail mail and as I get too much traffic 200+ msgs a day, it will build. Please send simple, direct instructions on how to find and change the hotmail password, thank you.

So i was going to go to the forums to whine about the new phone layout (cause it's ugly, less compact and laggy to the point of freezing) but the forums seem to be down rights now.

I admit I have a minimal machine for FF --- Win 7 pro, 2G ram but up to now it has managed---I just can't have too many large tabs open at one time. What gives with this install prob???

Spectrum recently updated their email systems and Firefox can no longer be used to check Spectrum webmail email accounts. I used to be able to go directly to the webmail but now they make you log into your Spectrum account to get to the email accounts and there is something about Firefox that is not up to their security standards. I am running Windows 7 with the latest Firefox that will work in 7. I am also running the Brave browser on Windows 7 and that works with the new Spectrum system. I prefer using Firefox over Brave so could you please correct whatever deficiency exists in Firefox to make it compatible with Spectrum webmail?

FYI, Firefox on my Windows 10 machine has the same issue.

My computer suddenly started the above error message for multiple programs. The local computer shop was able to sort out what appeared to be the root cause and that recovered some things but I still needed to reinstall a number of programs.

The program I am terrified of reinstalling is Thunderbird. All my emails on five email accounts since 2011 are stored in TB and I naturally do not want to lose any of them.

The major problems are the computer is running Win7 Enterprise and I am 82 years old so I am prone to needing things spelt out in greater detail than many others.

Can anyone provide a way to reset the program permissions (preferable) or identify the best way to reinstall and still access all my historic emails?

Thank you

I am using Thunderbird 115.18.0 and Windows 7 professional (no snarky comments please).

All has been working fine for years, but in the last few days, strange thing have been happening:

In the pane with all of my email accounts, the ">" icon to the left of the first account has been disappearing. This meant I could not look at any folders, including Inbox, Drafts, Sent etc and handmade folders. Cured by closing and opening Thunderbird.

I now have two Archive folders, one called Archive, the other Archives. Both empty, neither can be deleted.

Periodically, when the ">" is present, selecting it (to "V"), the list of folders SLOWLY appears, one folder at a time.

Periodically, the bottom of the Thunderbird window, shows a 'downloading' message, of hundreds of files. Several GB of data has been downloaded over a couple of days.

Opening the Inbox folder, the pane with subject, correspondents, date etc has changed the sort order.

Sometimes, all of the emails in this pane have had their font underlined.

Nothing on my system has intentionally changed,

Any ideas what has gone wrong, and how to put things right would be appreciated.

Thanks,

I have just installed Norton 360 but am not able to receive emails. I followed all the steps as outlined in the Norton help site as much as possible and Thunderbird tells me that wscert.der is installed. However it was all to no avail. When doing so I did not see the screen asking me to trust this CA to identify web sites but every other step seemed OK.
