Hello everyone,

support for Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 will end in September with the end of the ESR 115 branch. Corresponding support article

Is this still the current status or are there any plans to support the old Windows versions for a little longer?

Thanks and regards, Martin

Hallo, ich habe einen neuen PC mit neu Win 11. Da habe ich Thunderbird neu installiert. Alle meine Mails sind bei Web.de gespeichert. Durch die neue Installation sind alle persönlich angelegten Ordner unter dem Ordner: "Lokale Ordner" verschwunden. Wo kann ich diese wiederfinden? Liebe Grüße Hans

Hi On my Computer I have some locale folders with a lot of mails. Have installed Thunderbird on my Android Mobile and want to see all these locale folders.

How do i get the search URLs from the previous browser to pop up log-ins automatically to favorite sites when beginning to type in the URL ? Like using an old Social Media links - Rumble or Facebook .login ; or an Ebay log in a gmail log in?

Do i need to restart the computer ?

Hi,

Dunno if this is by design, but a lot of installers don't play well when installed from standard user account with elevated privieleges. Firefox installer on Windows 10, when ran from GUI or admin PowerShell, accesses AppData fodler under standard user account that started the elevated process. Thus, it's not possible to install it if admin account doesn't have access to user folder, as on my system it doesn't for security reasons.

It's a minor inconvenience to need to explicitly log into admin account and do it there. But as this is a disease among installers I'd rather have them play well with normal security.

You may disagree here, and I understand if you do. Just pointing it out.

I've been having this annoying popup about XULRunner encountering an error. From what I've read, XULRunner is a legacy integration with Firefox. Sure enough, I see Mozilla Firefox installed. But un-installing it doesn't help. Soon, it is re-installed, and the error comes back. I have a feeling that some application is using XULRunner and Firefox as a component, but I don't know what it could be. Is there any way to find out, and stop that application from installing Firefox and XULRunner? Or at least getting its problem fixed?

why and or how can i update Firefox. i am running Firefox 126. every time i open the browser the auto update opens and fails to download. i tried loading it through Safari, also failed. anyone have a clear and simple solution? the forum seems to have a lot of complicated work a rounds. any help would be appreciated

Just downloaded Thunderbird onto pc running Windows 10 and tried to link it to my wife's custom domain email that is hosted by GoDaddy with Microsoft 365 email. Thunderbird recognizes her domain based email address and sets everything up but when it tries to connect and get emails from the Microsoft 365 on GoDaddy I get a notification window shown in the attached picture. Godaddy is no help as they don't support third party programs. Have been using Thunderbird for years on my Mac so thought it would be great for my wife on the pc. Thanks for any help.

I have tried to reinstall Thunderbirds which I have used for many years. I cannot seem to get the Thunderbirds symbol on my list of apps or appearing at the top of my screen where I should be able to simply click on it to enable me to read or write emails.
