Install a TB tar "xz" file, based on installation instruction does not work.

The TB Solutions only provide information for a tar "bz2" file. I downloaded a "xz" file (thunderbird-140.0.tar.xz), how do I install this?

Thanks for any help or solution.

I wish to update my current version of 128.12.0esr within my Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS OS.

The tar -xf thunderbird-140.0.tar.xz command is all you need to extract .tar.xz files on most Linux distributions.

Thanks for getting back, how do I expand it to a new folder called Thunderbird. What it does is it expands inside of my Download folder. Again, thanks for the command , just need to open in its own created folder.

You could chain some Bash commands together with the tar command: mkdir /home/$USER/Downloads/Thunderbird && cd $_ && tar -xf /home/$USER/Downloads/thunderbird-140.0.tar.xz This will create a new folder called Thunderbird in your Downloads folder, cd into it, and then extract the tar file's contents into that folder.
