Summary of my current relevant software/hardware:
FireFox (UK): 113.0.2 (64-bit) Windows 10 Pro(UK): Vers.: 22H2 Installed on: 2021-01-23 OS build: 19045-2965 Lenovo (laptop): ThinkPad X1 Extreme Gen 3 Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10750H CPU @ 2.60GHz 2.59 GHz Installed RAM: 32.0 GB (31.8 GB usable) System Type: 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor
My problems with FireFox 113.0.2 started when I began to download some Affinity V2 videos. Some of these were rather large (over 500MB) and I noticed that several were being downloaded at the same time (which was no surprise). However, after sometime I noticed that only one of the videos was completely downloaded and the others were just stopped. Then, when I looked at the task manager the number of FireFox instances was increasing: ...,5,6,...18,..
Of course, I thought I could fix the download process but all my efforts failed; e.g. after a restart of windows and execution of FireFox the same videos were still in a "hold" state and many instances of FireFox were being executed. After a frustating night of failures I finally decided to restore an older FireFox using my Acronis backup/recovery software. My last Aronis backup of my entire system was made on 2023/04/07 with the most recent version of FireFox at the time which worked fine when downloading several large video files at the same time.
I only included the C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox' in the restore since I have installed a rather large number of new apps and updates after 2023/04/07. This also failed -- my add-ons, bookmarks, etc. in this restored version were all missing and before I could stop the recovery process, the restored FireFox was updated to the latest as of today (2023/06/01). And of course the problem had not be fixed.
So finally to my request: What directories, files do I need to restore, from the 2023/04/27 backup with all of its features at that time -- this is important, and how do I stop it from upgrading to a newer version?
I would be glad to provide additional information if needed :-)

I will be moving all of my data to a new laptop and want to know if I need to have both my personal Firefox profile and the "default-release" profile backed up. The "default" one is over 3GB and has over 20k files in it, and my personal one is only 113 MB with 1300 files — and my thumb drive needs all the extra space it can get. (Why would the "default-release" profile be so much larger than my personal one?)
The old laptop runs on Windows and the new one will have the Linux OS. Will that make a difference in using a backed up Firefox profile? I mean, will the data still work in the new OS?

I have several email accounts with my domain at Godaddy. They say I must change from POP/IMAC to EXCHANGE PROTOCOL to see my email. When will there be a software solution for TB to change the emails to EXCHANGE automatically?

When I installed the new version of Thunderbird, I lost all my saved email files, and I lost all the opened emails in my inbox, which I had been keeping there for further action at a later date. Is there anyway to recover my lost emails? Can I go back to the old version, and will my lost emails be recovered there?

I upgraded to the latest version of Thunderbird (supernova ?) and lost my address book. Can I recreate it?
Can’t tell if version is latest or install updates if needed.

I am trying to set up a new Thunderbird email account using pop3.gotadsl.co.uk port 110 and smtp-auth.gotadsl.co.uk port 25 which are the settings I have been using for years on my old Livemail account. Thunderbird recognises these settings but warns me that pop3 and smtp-auth do not use encryption and as such could expose my password and private information, Can you please advise me what settings I can use. Many thanks.

I have been using TB for many years. In previous version, filter rules data were stored in: MsgFIlterRules.dat file. I find no such file in TB 102. I can copy the MsgFilterRules.dat file from a previous installation, but where should I put it? The folder arrangement of TB 102 seem quite different from that of my previous version, which was 78. I am using MX linux 21.3.
My Thunderbird is stuck on checking mail server capabilities, and emails are not downloading to my laptop, but can still be accessed via webmail.

My e-mail address changed, but the old one keeps popping up. I need to ELIMINATE the old one and use ONLY the new one. I've told various organizations, businesses, etc., to make the change. I want Mozilla Firefox to ELIMINATE the old one and use ONLY the new one. Help!

I've downloaded a calendar file 4 times from a website. I've checked all of my 2 download folders with internet and SD card. Not there. I 4 notifications listed next to the Firefox shortcut. Where the hell did Firefox send the files and how do I deal with the notifications. Not listed when I go into the settings. Beyond frustrating. Shouldn't be this hard. Urgh.

Hello, thank you for your help. What a pretty application.
I installed Thunderbird on Fedora 36. It came up and asked for account information. I typed some in, but needed to enter ports. I hit the advanced button and it gave me an unexpected message about my settings not being saved.
Anyway, the account settings->Server Settings, and settings->Outgoing Server, are all now set and correct. Strangely, there is no place on the form for entering the passwords for the incoming and outgoing accounts. I guess it will prompt for those?
I can not get Thunderbird to do anything at all.
If I tell it to read mail, nothing happens (and no password prompt so it can not have checked for messages).
There are no 'test connection' buttons on the settings pages that I can find.
There are no error messages that I can find, or any other indication of a problem.
LOL I am completely baffled and have no idea what to do to make it go. Any tips appreciated. Thanks!
I have other email accounts which I wish to handle on the one page . Is that possible
