How to set a password to open Thunderbird?

I just installed Thunderbird 115.16.0esr (64-bit) on Ubuntu 24.04.5 LTS and it is working with the email I linked it.

I wanted to set a password to open TB because it is enough to click and it access the linked email.

I tried startupmaster-1.6.5-fx+tb.xpi but when trying to open it firefox says "corrupted file"

I don't like master password, I type passwords myself

Any clue?

thanks

Currently, I am using the desktop version of Thunderbird and I have my email account configured to digitally sign my emails with an S/MIME certificate. I cannot find a way to import my certificates on the android version of Thunderbird. Is there away to setup certificates in the Android version of the app?

I have been having this issue for a while now. I will get this message on different websites, and then if I try again later it might work. It seems like it's a random chance of me getting this error. I have tried "about:config" commands as suggested on other posts on this forum and they didn't work. I checked my licenses, proxy settings and still nothing. I got another web browser to see if it's my PC or Firefox, and the other browser worked just fine. I am guessing there is something I need to do within Firefox, but I am not sure what that is.

Find that at each update, the Startpage search engine is re-installed WITHOUT my permission. I understand startpage can be defined as a PUP, and I don't trust it. The most aggravating thing is that installing add-ons and extentions without users' permission is unconscionable.

Would like to know if there is any way I can block the reinstallation of this at each update.

Thanks.

My safe downloads are being continually blocked by your Norton Safe Web. I have already gone thru the security settings and unchecked them. It is still blocking simple WORD downloads from clean sources and business partners. Is there a way to fix this? Otherwise I need to abandon Fierfox for another browser.

bsky.app cookie continues to be loaded on computer even after I continually delete it, privacy set to strict and blocked under "managed exceptions, why is it being reloaded when I don't access the site. None of the sites I access are linked to it, only visited once and if this alternative to x continues to set cookies, how can I permanently block it, thought the exceptions list was supposed to keep blocking it. So far it's come back three times, I'll screenshot it next time and attach.

With the last update of iPadOS 18 and Firefox I recognized, that when in background and when I switch between apps, the Firefox screen is showing a website with private information. It is always the same screen from a wensite where I had to put private information in. Even a restart with reset and a new installation of the firefox app does not change that.

In connection with the fact, that private browsing mode is not the default on ios this is concerning me. Firefox should be private first!

When in background the app switcher should show nothing from my browsing window. Is there a way to change this behavior?

Thank you for any help in this regard!

Hello,

We are manufacturers of networking devices.

As most networking devices, ours can be configured by navigating to the default gateway IP address via the browser. With the rise of security awareness, various regulations are forbidding the usage of HTTP. This is bothersome to us, as connecting to our devices via HTTPS and our self-signed sertificates will always throw an error of an unsecure connection to the end user. We understand the technical reasoning for this and that users are able to ignore the message, but this does impact our user experience and it may even discourage users from using our devices.

As these regulations will be impacting networking devices globally, we want to ask you if there are any workarounds for the self-signed sertificate "unsecure connection" message. Perhaps there is an argument that can be set, or an ongoing effort from browser vendors to assist networking device manufacturers with this.

Any information or help is appreciated.

Thank you.

I do not want companies to hold my hand and secretly micro mange my browsing. How do I turn off Total Cookie Protection completely. I am blocked on some sites even if click on the Shield and turn off Total Cookie Protection.

At computer cold boot on windows 11 home pro, Firefox view is open even though it is not in the start menu. It displays a flashy investment type site with a popup "sign up now" window over it. It does not happen on every cold start but does regularly. The site it displays does not show in history before of after it happens. I can find no place on the computer where that site exists, Bitdefender doesn't find anything and neither does Malwarebytes.

Is this something that Firefox did at last update to 132.02 which is when it started happening? Are you now going to have ads all over?

How do I stop this before there is an accidental software install from what looks like a very questionable website.

It was called "Trendview" which an existing website that doesn't have a great reputation and no way to contact them on their website that I can find.

I've found that some of my emaIls in very latest Thunderbird mail client on Windows 10 have had their content replaced with a phishing email - the title of the email is as per the existing email received yesterday but the content is a phishing email made to look like a contact request from a motor insurance provider that I used years ago and the email is addressed to the email address I used when dealing with said insurance company.  It's only an issue with Thunderbird as the email looks fine on my mobile phone and in Outlook.  Either Thunderbird itself is compromised or one of the installed extensions is compromised.

Has anyone come across a similar issue?

I'm running an antivirus scan but I think I might uninstall and wipe clean Thunderbird if the scan shows no issues.
