Around Jan. 4, I tried moving all of my Inbox contents to a new subfolder "Inbox 2025". This process was taking a long time and I didn't see it complete. Afterwards, I can start Thunderbird OK (version 115.3.1 (64-bit) running on a Windows 10 system). I see the new folder "Inbox 2025" and it seems complete. I also see other folders which look OK. But the incoming messages have frozen at 01/01/26 [for one e-mail account] and at 01/04/26 [for a second e-mail account.]

It is also true that all of my Thunderbird sessions end by crashing after a certain period of time. What can I do to restart Thunderbird so that it will connect with the relevant servers, get new messages and not crash?

I have been using Easy Screenshot for years. Today I tried taking a screenshot and it opened a huge copy of the rectangular image I wanted to save in a new tab. Then there was no visible way to save the image. I used to get the option to save the image file in the same tab as the image I wanted to save. Took a screenshot and saved in Paint to show the contents of the Firefox window that image is huge and should have been 4 inches wide at most. Also the lack of how to save the image.

I'm wondering if this a because of the latest update. Firefox 147.0.1 X64 desktop WIN10 22h2 with ESU

When I tried reporting the problem on the add-on page the website it tried to connect to was not working so asking here for help.

How does the 'Covert to Task ...' function work on an email? When I click the Convert to task, nothing happens. I was expecting to see a task in my task list. Where does it go? I have a 'Task calendar' and a Google calendar in my list.

When I go to google.com/maps, I immediately see a map drawing of my location - then as the site *finishes* loading, the display area CLEARS, leaving the menu and various "hover" items from the site.

Just...no "roads". 🤣 Just a big vanilla background image.

Google maps works in another browser - the issue is just in Firefox.

Currently on Win 10, running under Parallels on a MacBook Pro. (Maps works great under the Mac OS as well!)

Thanks,

A pop-up screen often appears when I use Firefox. It says hat I have a virus and that I need to call a phone number to remove it. It claims to be Norton,but I doubt that it ts. I have attempted to remove this with Microsoft Defender, SuperAntiSpyware and Trend Housecall but none of them work. Can you help me?

Firefox was using GOBS of CPU, so I killed the master process and relaunched, but after launch I couldn't get any pages to finish loading. I then hoped to copy URLs from tabs and paste them into Floorp (which is working fine, as is Chrome), but I couldn't even snag the URLs (dominated by YouTube pages). I ran a full-system virus scan, finding nothing. The most recent Windows-11 update on 2026-Jan-15 isn't recent enough to be a likely causal factor. Firefox has about twice as many extensions as Floorp, but it was running fine until late yesterday (it's now after 3AM). I couldn't get the extensions page to load, so I've attached a screenshot of C:\Users\Mike2\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\oa7ou5xk.default-release-1715337056307\extensions There are several other profiles, but there's very little in them (one profile with a times.json & several profiles containing a parent.lock file)

If I reinstall, will I lose all of my tabs?

Hey folks!

Thanks for taking the time to look at this, simply put I am using the 'workspaces' app in windows power toys which allows me to open windows in specific configurations to make a workspace. The app allows me to open other apps with CLI args, so I can open Firefox to a preset url, or even predefined set of tabs.

This has got me wanting to use my firefox tab groups as a way of opening "dynamic" windows in my workspace. All that would be needed is a way to open a specific tab group from CLI, or more specifically a CLI arg that I can input into power toys workspace.

Please let me know if there is a way to do this. I checked the Firefox CLI [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/CommandLineOptions|documentation] and didn't find anything though.

I have entered in exceptions for a web page that Firefox continues to block....I have gone through your steps 4 times now...one time out of 4 you actually let the web page through....since then you don't again...what is wrong with your system? as I am not receiving a download link from the intended exception due to the fact you are not honoring it....

I have enabled the option to open the previous windows and tabs. I had one window that I always closed last as it had a lot of groups that are important for my work, so it used to open every time I started Firefox. Sometimes, even if I closed the window by mistake without closing other windows, I was able to get it back by pressing ctrl+shift+n.

But yesterday, I might have closed it by mistake and when I pressed ctrl+shift+n , it didn't come back. I wasn't able to access my window and now it's all gone. I don't see anything in recently closed windows in history.

I need those tabs back as they are very important for my work. they were a lot of tabs. I had many groups but now all are gone. I tried by using the previous.jsonlz4 in the sessionstore-backup by renaming it in the default-release profile as sesstionstore.jsonlz4 but still wasn't able to access my window.

I didn't clear my history as the tabs opened in the window still show up in the history.

Kindly help as soon as possible

I am unable to send emails from Thunderbird. Getting the message: An error occurred while sending mail: Outgoing server (SMTP) error. The server responded: Connection from xx.xxx.xx.xxx refused.

When I check my password under "Tools - Security', I only see a password listing for my 'incoming' server [that I do not have a problem with].

My out-going server setup has "Authentication" as normal password. When I try to send an email, Thunderbird does not ask for a password. Is it possible the error message refers to lack of a password? If so, is there anyway to manually add an STMP password to Thunderbird?

Edge" (or some Microsoft product) repeatedly tries to preempt Firefox, my default browser, loading my default page: Yahoo.mail. It happens inconsistently, and in different manners, hard to describe. It happened on my desktop and also on my laptop. It seems very aggressive, but right now the start-up was normal

Although I remain logged in to sites and cookies show in DevTools, the cookies list in settings>privacy>Cookies_and_Site_Data>manage_data shows as empty, no cookies listed.

In troubleshoot mode, the same blank list. I haven't changed any settings. network.cookie.cookieBehavior is set to 1 I'm on windows 10 Home 22H2

The update to 147.0.1 seems to have caused it. Please advise.

Hi, I’ve been experiencing slow startup times in Firefox, especially when I have my Time calculator web app open. The browser takes longer to load and sometimes becomes unresponsive.

I’ve tried disabling extensions and changing my home page, but the issue persists. Are there any specific settings or troubleshooting steps in Firefox that can help improve performance when using online calculators like this?

Any guidance or tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I deleted coockies and since then (even though the Settings appear correct) every time open a web site I hace to accept cookies and re enter my log in. Nothing is rememebered. I evern have some sites opening blank (without my saved options) but on my home computer the same user name and password displays the data that i missing on my work computer. I exported passwords, deleted and re-installed Firefox but there is still the same problem.

Help please!
