I am using Thunderbird 115.5.0 and have been suffering double line spacing since I upgraded to this version. I can fix it on a on a per session basis, but when the programme is closed, it defaults to double space again. May I ask when this bug is going to be addressed please? Thanks John.

I have forgotten my cogeco, email PW accessed through the Thunderbird account. Email address is bcorbett8@cogeco.ca

As I cannot remember it, Thunderbird does not provide option for reset without original password. I have been unable to read messages for some time and need to do so. Please advise at earliest convenience.

When I try to login almost anywhere now, that "protect your e-mail address" prompt comes up? This prevents me from selecting saved logins. So, right now saved logins are almost useless.

How do I get saved logins to autofill like they're supposed to?

I have an issue with the address bar in private windows. Normally when you click on the search bar in the new tab page, it will redirect the cursor to the address bar instead of letting you use the search bar.

I found the following solution on the forum here that works for normal windows: go to the about:config page and set browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.improvesearch.handoffToAwesomebar to false.

For private windows, this fix does not work. It will still go to the address bar instead of letting you use the search bar. Is there another way for me to fix this so that it will also work in private windows?

After upgrading to Thunderbird 115.6.0 (from unknown) on Linux Mint 20.1, email body text defaults to small size

After upgrading to Thunderbird 115.6.0 (from some prior version) on Linux Mint 20.1 LTS, we noticed the body of the email text was defaulting to a small size. You could Increase Font Size, and that would increase the font size for both the header and window, but also the email body. But when you closed the email and reopened it, the header and window font size stayed what you set it to, but the email body text displayed in the same small size. Interestingly, when you then say "Decrease Font Size", it would make the text larger, in line with the header and window font size shrinking by one notch. Zoom likewise increases the font size of the email body, but it doesn't persist. I've tried the recommendations for going into custom settings and changed to default the properties that were recommended, but that did not seem to fix the issue.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Hello, yesterday (Friday) I downloaded the program Pure Web Browser, which was one of the advertisement on Firefox website when I opened it. Later, I discovered that Pure Browser was blocking many things, because I could not perform functions on some websites, such as getting my email because it blocked me signing in. This happened with several sites.

Could you please tell me how to delete Pure Web Browser, as it is causing problems with the PC. I have tried, and had no success.

Thanks for your help.

When I clicked troubleshooting mode FF unexpectedly closed my Private browsing session and all the tabs. How do I reopen them?

I did not expect FF to close on me like that. I thought that as I was in a private browsing session FF would have warned me that it was about to close had it been necessary.

I'm guessing that my open tabs have been lost permanently because you didn't warn me and that all that time I spent is now wasted.

Life is really simple except that other people make it problematic.

Firefox is my default browser however if find that it does demand a significant amount of RAM whilst running for example today it is running 800 Mb with only 5 tabs open but earlier it was using 1200 Mb. This demand is slowing down my computer as other programmes are being impacted. Is there any way of restricting or limiting the amount of RAM being used by Firefox. Currently it is normally at the top of programmes using the greatest amount of RAM.
