Thunderbird Community Forum

Thunderbird is regularly (at least once a week at random times) forgetting all my passwords. I have tried all the suggestions I can find (deleting various system files etc) and nothing changes. The passwords work for several days, but eventually when I start Thunderbird it has lost all my passwords. This is something that started about two or three months ago; before that, I never had a problem.

P.S. Yes, I select "use password manager" (or whatever it's called) every time I have to put in the passwords.

I have 3 email accounts which i unified. when log in I get prompted to enter password for all three accounts which I do, then I get prompted again to enter the password to all Password Manager to save my passwords which I do not want and therefore I uncheck it for all three; I then get prompted again for all three which I enter password, then I get imap login error on my main account which I click cancel a few times before it goes away,

I use Thunderbird portable. How do I fix this issue. it should be that one enters the password for each account once not three to four times. I do not want to use Password Manager to Save my accounts.

Also if ever I have to change password how do I do that? thank for your help.

I have the portable version, download from portable apps website.
