I can't close TB. It is frozen in the midst of trying to compact files. This is the error message:

"Compact folders (Not responding) Thunderbird needs to do regular file maintenance to improve the performance of your mail folders. This will recover 685 MB of disk space without changing your messages. To let Thunderbird do this automatically in the future without asking, check the box below before choosing ‘Compact now’."

My husband and I had the same problem with our laptops not loading emails, saying it doesn't have sufficient file space. I fixed his by deleting a lot of files and then compacting the remainder. BUT - this isn't working for mine. In the process of trying to compact files, it froze and I can't figure out a way to close it and try again.

Any help appreciated! Thanks.

I seem to have accidentally set up tab-groups, on desktop. Probably I fat-fingered a shortcut to group some tabs. This is a function I'll never intentionally use — since I'd rather not cut off my fat fingers, is there a way to permanently shut off tab-groups?

Thank you kindly.

I'm running Thunderbird 138.0.3 (release update channel). I had an update in the past few days and now it is having a problem. Thunderbird starts OK but it I use another program for several minutes when I go back to Thunderbird its window is not visible. Looking at my system monitor Thunderbird is using a lot of CPU. The only way I can proceed is to kill Thunderbird from the system monitor. No crash report is generated. Running in safe mode does not help.

If I run Thunderbird from a terminal I get: $ thunderbird [64132] Sandbox: CanCreateUserNamespace() unshare(CLONE_NEWPID): EPERM ATTENTION: default value of option mesa_glthread overridden by environment.

This seems pertinent as it it to do with graphics but the web seems to suggest it in not important.

I have copied the Troubleshooting information to a text file and so can share it but it is quite large does not seem appropriate to include it here.

Any help gratefully received.

I am no longer receiving calendar notifications for events which are entered as "all day" events on my Google calendar.

I had a similar problem about three years ago when I wasn't receiving notifications for ANY events on my Google calendar. I attempted to solve this problem in a similar fashion by uninstalling/reinstalling Thunderbird then disconnect/reconnecting Google Calendar as discussed in the following link, but the All Day events' notifications still are not appearing.

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1397571

As a debugging step/temporary solution (so I don't miss notifications), I have integrated my Google Calendar with Outlook, and am receiving notifications correctly with that app, so the problem doesn't appear to be on the Google end.

Over the past couple of weeks, I've had problems loading pages on Facebook and Instagram. The FB feed fails. I see a couple of stories, then no more. Or I don't see video and images, instead getting a blank box and a description of what it shows. Instagram just keeps the white page and doesn't load anything. Going through solutions, I tried troubleshooting mode. That didn't help. Then there was the suggestion to try another browser. I have no problems using Edge. Has Microsoft done something to stop these sites working? I'm running Windows 10 Home, 64 bit and Firefox 138.0.4 on my PC
